All creation praises god so your saying that my plant and my cat at home praise God. Don't think so myself. Maybe you didn't quite get what we mean when saying all creation praises God. I do believe that your houseplant and your cat praise God, simply by existing. I find reason to praise God in the beauty and complexity of things like plants and cats. We did not mean that your cat starts singing hymns when you leave the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God has said all creation praises him. trees, rocks, the sea - all are aware of God. here we have science catching up to the truth of the bible. but i've still hugged a lot of trees in my lifetime Interesting article.

All creation praises god so your saying that my plant and my cat at home praise God. Don't think so myself. why not? you and your cat and your plant (and a rock, by the way) have more in common than you may realize. think atoms, molecules, quarks, all kinds of matter and energy. Colossians 1:16, 17 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
