11 rulers of God's creation

Father, Your name rings from every mountain. Yet the world stubbornly tries to deny who You are. Some see Your handiwork but don't see Your love. Some see You but refuse to believe Your word. And still many more deny You altogether. Father I pray that they would see how all of creation draws them together under Christ. That we are meant to be good stewards of Your creation to show the world the unmeasurable prominence that Jesus has in our lives. If I don't see Christ in the birds of the air or the leaves on a tree, how will anyone else? But You have revealed Yourself to us, in Your creation and in Your word. You have commanded us to rule over Your creation. To let Your love shine through us in our workmanship of this earth. To start with the brilliance of Your creation, which all can see, and use it as a spring board to bring them the gospel. Lord I pray that You would help me remove the bowl covering my lamp. Help me share You with reckless abandon. That they would know I value Jesus by the way I rep His name.

for there is one Way
