Surprising Nature: Lessons From God’s Creation

If we slow down and look around, we can find powerful spiritual lessons in nature. Frozen frogs, hickory horned devils, blue dashers, singing cicadas, and magnificent monarchs all reveal God’s tender care for His creation.

In this devotional-style book featuring 45 fascinating, colorful creatures, readers young and old will see clearly how God designs each of us for a unique purpose and gently meets our every need. Each entry features a spectacular photograph and a Bible verse to highlight the scientific information and spiritual lesson. The last pages feature a journal section for logging additional animals and their photos, plus a pledge to care for animals.

These stories were originally published in Primary Treasure, the weekly 16-page faith-building magazine for kids.

Follow the grasshopper’s lead and pray, sing, and praise louder. Be joyful louder. Tell God that you love Him louder. And then announce to the noisy world, “God loves you!”
