the skies are your handiwork.

PRAYER
Wondrous Creator, you are the one true God who laid the foundation of the earth. You formed the whole universe and all that is in it. My mind cannot comprehend it, but I can believe through faith in Christ Jesus. He is the eternal Word of God. Thank you for giving me life. Praise be to God. Amen.
