I love nature...
The hiding rocks, scurry-bugs, and mossy sticks.
The welcome flowers, promise-of-rivers, and winking stars.
And I'm fully convinced that--
God writes the gospel not in the Bible alone,
but on trees and flowers and clouds and stars.
~Martin Luther
I'm convinced that we should tell our children to--
But for us, the dilemma is--
What to do with all the
pockets-filled-with-treasures-that-they-bring-back home.
And so--
Here is our first attempt at a Nature Table.
Or Center.
Or Corner.
A special spot to show them that we value the
newly-discovered treasures-from-God.
Reading about nature is fine,
but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully,
he can learn more than what is in books,
for they speak with the voice of God.
~George Washington Carver
Nature is the art of God.
~Thomas Browne
When I look at Your Heavens,
The work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
What is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?
~Psalm 8:3 & 4
Every child of God is--
...formed to be a spectator of the created world –
and given eyes
that he might be led to its Author
by contemplating so beautiful a representation.
~John Calvin
