When you look honestly at nature and the incredible complexity, beauty, and design that is found in creation, it is obvious that we live in a world designed by a wonderful, creative, and loving God! The recent explosion of beautiful dancing ribbons of light, otherwise known as the northern lights, is the perfect example of God’s creative genius.
Contemplating the beauty of the aurora borealis and the greatness of God lead me to hum the song, popularized by Kenny Rogers, You Decorated My Life.
Read these words, sing the song, or listen to it on YouTube…and ask the Holy Spirit to help you to see how God has indeed decorated your life!
You Decorated My Life
All my life was a paper
Once plain, pure and white
‘Til you moved with your pen
Changing moods now and then
‘Til the balance was right
Then you added some music
Every note was in place
And anybody could see
All the changes in me
By the look on my face
And you decorated my life
Created a world where dreams are apart
Oh, and you decorated my life
By painting your love all over my heart
You decorated my life
Like a rhyme with no reason
And an unfinished song
There was no harmony
Life meant nothing to me
Until you came along
And you brought out the colors
What a gentle surprise
Now, I’m able to see
All the things life can be
Shining soft in your eyes
And you decorated my life
Created a world where dreams are apart
Oh and you (you) decorated my life
By painting your love all over my heart
You decorated my life
