Inspiration ... on this earth

My inspiration comes from The Creator, Whose artwork in His creation is wonderful!

His ways are higher than our ways.
His thoughts are higher than our thoughts.

He paints the skies, even when the rich (who pay pilots to spew poisonous chemicals into our atmosphere, continue to try to poison us, our land & our water The Creator has given to us, as gifts) are intent on affecting The Creator's skies we see with chemicals that try to hide, or alter, our view toward His heavens.

My inspiration originates from His written Word.
He uses poetic language, in the form of prayer songs.
He also uses historical information, about kings, about people and about honorable spiritual leaders.
He also uses stories told (at times) in parable form.
He also uses metaphors, as well as concepts that lend themselves to being included in allegorical-type stories made into movies, by humans who want to try to translate His concepts into an acceptable, and thought-provoking, format, for anyone who's willing to view it.  We can learn a lot from these,
in our modern time, since so many will not take time to pick up a good book & read....

The artistic Creator, Who *is* creative, and brought forth the very concept of creativity into His world, onto His earth, ... has produced many amazing designs we can see while looking at a brook, or a small stream, or a creek, and noticing the ways the water flows over the many shapes and sizes of stones and rocks.

Our Creator has put design also into the limbs and trunks of trees, if we will but notice what He's done.
He also uses the orderly, and predictable, shapes to help us to recognize safe-to-eat species of plants -- or trees (by their type of bark, and color, and trunk direction, whether bent, or straight, or in between).

Our Father in heaven, Whose Creation He is allowing us to enjoy, today (I believe), wants us to appreciate what He has put here, on His earth, on loan to us.
He seems to allow us so much freedom of choice, so much free-will choosing, while also expecting us to act responsibly with our use of His creation.
He seems to want us to use it thoughtfully and ... He, then, will reward us if we do that.

Let's please The One on Whose earth we dwell ... by noticing the details in His created things, including the petals on flowers, as well as their aroma, or the aroma of blossoms we see at this time of year, ... while also noticing the multiplicity of edible plants, and flowers, He has placed here to help us.

Let's appreciate what He has done AND tell Him, each day, "a hearty Thank You!"  He deserves it.  We actually do not deserve what He has put here for us to use and to enjoy (responsibly).

If you have some thoughts to share, on this topic, and on a more specific topic within this topic of appreciating our Creator's beautiful and inspiring creation, leave me a comment, ... won't you?

Shalom
