Sarah Price "All Creatures"

Creation sent to me the centipede
to witness the complexity
of one hundred legs that were moving unexpectedly
ironically
just as they were meant to be,
they’re fearfully and wonderfully made;
An organism praised in circadian rhythms:
the sun will rise and then the sun will set, and then the sun will rise again,
so lift up your head!

This is the beginning of a song called “All Creatures” by Josh Garrels. It is so SO cool to see God’s creation in this way. We often look at the mountains, oceans, galaxies, and other big objects that show God’s glory and grandeur. But we often neglect the small details that show His power. God didn’t just create mountains, but also complex organisms like the centipede. Each displays His glory and attention to detail. Each have purpose and are crucial members of this planet that He made. We ought to recognize these next time we not only look at grand landscapes, but also when we look at small individual blades of grass and bugs!
