God's Self Disclosure and Our Response

Psalm 19 beautifully articulates God’s self disclosure in two voices. The first is the roar of creation — vast, wordless, universal, and overwhelming. Every sunrise, every galaxy, every crashing wave is a syllable in a sentence that has been speaking since the first day of creation: There is a God, and He is glorious beyond our imagination. That voice is always speaking. It speaks to the scientist in the laboratory and the shepherd in the field. It speaks to the child who catches fireflies and the old man who watches the horizon at at sunset. It speaks whether we’re listen or not.

The second voice is the precise, personal, life-giving Word of Scripture. Where creation shows us God's power, Scripture shows us God's character. This scripture saves us, redeems us and sanctifies us with it’s perfect truth. It is more precious than gold. It is sweeter than honey. And it was written — every page, every word — to bring us home to the God who made us.

And with both of God’s voices —the great trajectory of His Love is experienced. The silent roar of the star filled cosmos and the perfect whisper of His Word — are designed to bring us all to the same place: on our knees, in prayer, with a heart that says, Lord, transform me so I can be pleasing in Your sight. This Sunday Jay will attempt to bring all of this to light as he preaches from Psalm 19 in the sermon
