Variety is the Spice of Life

Have you ever considered the vast variety we have in our world?
 
Just think of all the different types of flowers, some have five
petals, some have six, some have too many to count.  They come
in all different shapes and sizes and colors.  Some smell soft
and delicate, some smell sweet, and some don't smell good at all! 
 
 
Then there are the birds.
 
A robin does not sing like a cardinal,
and a chicken definitely does not soar like an eagle!
 
 
Trees don't just have different types of leaves, they also
have different types of bark, different shapes, and different fruit.
 
Animals not only don't look alike, they also have very different
character traits.  A dog acts very different from a horse!

So what's my point?  All of the amazing things that are easily
observed in the world point to a wise and loving Creator.
 Only God could have such creativity, and all the wonderful,
funny, pretty, and majestic things he made are here to bring us joy.
 
Praise the LORD from the earth...
you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and cedars,
wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,
kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,
young men and maidens,
old men and children.
Psalm 148:7,9-12
