creation calls

The earth is full of your possessions...
this great and wide sea, in which are innumerable teeming things, living things both small and great.
Psalm 104:24-25

We had the opportunity to see some of 'His possessions' up close this past week...as we cruised the Johnstone Strait off the northern tip of Vancouver Island. We watched killer whales play...and heard them sing to each other. We saw several humpback whales...and a new baby humpback...spotted for the first time. Creation...ours to enjoy...ours to be responsible for...and ours to give thanks for.

Sunday blessings...

    How wondeful to see all of that sea life! I know what you mean about the singing of the whales - hard to describe any other way.
    I look foward to reading more about your adventure.

  2. Singing whales...what was that like? I can't imagine the beauty you experienced on the water. The verse you shared tied in perfectly, and I wish you blessings today, too. Hope you are having a memorable time.

  3. I stopped and pondered your word responsibility. God has entrusted the world to us...to use and enjoy. I remember one time hearing the whales 'sing' to each other. Enjoying traveling with you. Kathy
