Third, thank you for using your gift of words to say what my heart says every time I look outside!

Hi! I really enjoyed reading your post about how God reveals Himself through nature. I am very much NOT a naturalist but since I have been “doing” the nature walks with my children as I endeavour to incorporate Charlotte Mason style learnings in my home, I have seen this truth every time! It still surprises me how very present He is- in nature! Thanks for a great and enlightening/ truthful post “O)

Thank you for this reminder that God reveals Himself through nature and to Whom we are accountable.

Thanks for posting this, Jimmie! It really makes sense. I love how God reveals Himself through nature, and love to show my kids…but I don’t always think of the study of nature as being “right up there” with studying the Bible. But it would make sense to study it since so much of nature is referred to within God’s Word..and to study it enriches not only our understanding of our Creator, but of the Word that He has given us as well.

What a wonderful post! Both you and the NaturExplorer ladies have reminded me this week that we are learning about God Himself when we study nature! And, this isn’t just something “fun” I should be squeezing in and feeling guilty about because it is taking time away from “real” schoolwork. It is important! It is something God wants us to do.. He’s told us He has revealed Himself to us in nature. We must observe nature, just as we study our Bible, to discover what He has “written!”

Thank you for re-posting this, Jimmie!
