The Purpose Of Life: The Heavens Declare The Glory Of God, And So Do We

Can you hear the sound the universe makes? Can you hear the sound that you make with it? Just by living you make that sound, perhaps especially when you say nothing at all. Let all mortal flesh keep silence before Him! So be! So do! Speak, and be silent! So create, and take your rest! For everything there is a season. Let the excellence of it be! Do well! Give thanks in everything. The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord! Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might! To the glory of His holy name! 

"The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world."

--Psalm 19:1ff.
