Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father
There is no shadow of turning with Thee
Thou changes not, Thy compassion’s, they fail not
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be

Great is Thy faithfulness, great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me.

Summer and winter, springtime and harvest
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Great is Thy faithfulness, great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord, unto me!

  1. Find a place to get comfortable, and sit on a rock, or a log, choose a place that invites you to inspiration.
  2. Read the Bible passage from Romans 1:20 NIV

“Because since the creation of the world the invisible qualities of God, that is, his eternal power and his divine nature, are clearly perceived through what he created, so that no one is excused.”

Meditate: Seeing what God created, what invisible qualities of God can you see?

How does Provider God reveal himself with what he has arranged for our benefit through nature?

If you find something interesting, take the copy in your hand and praise God for that gift.

Think of other ways you have experienced that Provider God attribute in a particular situation.

They can draw, write or express themselves in some other way.

Take a moment to share your artistic expression or letter of wonder and adoration to God.

Read together Psalm 145: 15, 16 Reina Valera 60

Everyone’s eyes wait on you,

And you give them their food on time.

you open your hand,

And you fill every living being with blessing.

An interpretation of this passage:

Everyone’s eyes; living beings, both plants, animals and man, depend on God’s provision for our food.

You open your hand and fill every living being with blessing; The earth is satisfied, the trees, animals and all the inhabitants of the earth. What an admirable Provider is God!

They end up singing the hymn “Oh your fidelity” … I lack nothing because you provide everything

  • Choose a good place, where they can sit and in the explored environment they can express their admiration for God the Creator
  • Provide materials for those who want to draw or write
  • Take time to express your feelings to God out loud or showing your artistic expressions
