In the Scriptures, wisdom puts all of life in right order. Here the Psalmist celebrates the wisdom with which God has ordered time so that day and night, months and seasons all serve the purpose of life. Time reaches its intended culmination in the gift of everlasting life bestowed through Jesus Christ (courtesy of the Magnificat)Psalm 104
Bless the LORD, my soul! LORD, my God, you are great indeed!
You made the moon to mark the seasons, the sun that knows the hour of its setting.
- You bring darkness and night falls, then all the beasts of the forest roam abroad.
- Young lions roar for prey; they seek their food from God.
- When the sun rises, they steal away and rest in their dens. Man goes forth to their work, to their labor till evening falls.
- How varied are your works, Lord! In wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your richness.
I find joy in the Lord, Bless the Lord my soul
