Musings


Today I saw a double rainbow as Mom and I were leaving the Mall. It was absolutely stunning! The sun was setting, and to the east there was some rain sprinkling down and it was grey and periwinkle blue behind the rainbows, with their vibrant colours. Then when you looked the opposite direction it was just a magnificent array of beautiful purples, pinks, a bit of grey, and orange. I got to thinking of how wonderfully creative our Lord is by putting those opposite colors together to make the rainbow look so marvelously brilliant and to make the sky all around so beautiful. Even the shapes of the clouds were perfect in their places! This song came to mind as I was writing this out.

You Do All Things Well

Mountain maker
Ocean tamer
Glimpses of You
Burn in my eyes
The worship of heaven
Fills up the skies

You made it all
Said, "let there be"
And there was
All that we see
The sound of Your voice
The works of Your hands
You do all things well

Star creator
Wind breather
The strokes of Your beauty
Brushed through the clouds
Light from the heavens
Touching the ground

Imagination runs wild
And breathes the breath of life
Across the fields
Across the miles

You made it all
Said, "let there be"
And there was
All that we see
The sound of Your voice
The works of Your hands
You do all things well


Praise the Lord! He does do all things well.
