“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created” (Revelation 4:11).
At this time of year, where I live in Canada, the leaves of deciduous trees change color before they fall off. We have a large number of maple and oak trees, as well as many others, and the mixture of reds, browns, and yellows are quite impressive. Some people make a special trip at this time, just to see the fall colors.
I have sometimes thought of how many of those beautiful trees are in remote areas seldom seen by human eyes, yet there they are in all their beauty. Is that beauty wasted? No, for the Lord Himself enjoys the beauty of His creation. Even if no one else sees the beauty He has created, the Lord Himself takes pleasure in it.
