I am almost always sitting by a window, the first thing in the morning. I stare out upon the world, the earth, the sky, the water in all their glory, with no human help. No one has to lift a finger for them to be and keep being. It takes so much of my energy to mow my yard, but no human energy is expended to make it grow. There is a profoundness here that I cannot even think the thoughts to write about it. “The heavens are also remote from human influence and unchanged by time.” A single sentence in a Bible commentary can change everything outside my window. The glories of the God of our minds.
