A Look from the Top of Shénir Mountain

What sparrow is silent as the shadows on the foothills raise their shades? While the mountains shimmer in their stead, she lifts a song of praise to her Creator in these first hours: “I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever” (Psalm 89:1), she sings, amid His mercies new.


Come with me and Look From The Top of Shénir Mountain. As you lift your eyes on high in a season of thanksgiving and self-examination, watch the heavens declare the glory of God and the earth show His handiwork (Psalm 19:1). Straight away, you will find yourself nodding to His grace as you listen to His voice on the waters, watch Him cover the heavens with the clouds, prepare the earth for rain, and make the grass grow upon the mountains (Psalm 147:8). Finding solace in the company of our Creator brings blesséd assurance as we glorify God and learn what it means to “know the joyful sound” (Psalm 89:15).
