Who is it that has given us all the things that are beautiful in nature? It is the Creator of heaven and earth that has done this. . . . {8MR 32.1}[1]

我们在此地见到的这种景色使我心情愉快,我想知道我们有多少人看着大自然的崇高美物然后将感谢归给自然界的上帝呢?我们在尘世的东西上看到创造主的手了吗?基督徒才能对上帝在这个地球上已经赐给我们的万物有正确的评价。自然界中的每一朵花、每一丛灌木、每一件美物都叫我们的心离开大自然,归向自然界的上帝。谁给了美丽的花朵色彩,谁使它有颜色呢?乃是我们的天父。你们可以教导自己的儿女,这里向堕落的人类表达了上帝的爱。你可以观看自然界的美物,现在既被咒诅毁坏,就只能微弱地代表那将要来的喜乐。你们访问了地上最美的地方,并且乐在其中,可是,“上帝为爱祂的人所预备的是眼睛未曾看见,耳朵未曾听见……的”(林前2:9)!有多少人并没有想到上帝已赐给我们的那些东西啊。现在,我们若是能欣然赏识这些福气,就会总是快乐,然而有一位仇敌,他总是与我们作对,以致应该从我们口中流出的赞美与感激常常被扣留。(《文稿》,1887年17号第1,3,4页,〈实际的敬虔〉,1887年6月11日)1977年5月20日发布。{8MR32.2}[2]

Such scenes as we have on this ground cheer my heart and I want to know how many of us look upon the lofty things of nature and then return thanks to the God of nature? Do we see in the things of earthliness the hand of the Creator? It is the Christian that can set the true value upon everything that God has given us on this earth. Every flower and every shrub, everything beautiful in nature calls our mind away from nature to nature's God. Who gave that beautiful flower its tint, its color? It was our heavenly Father. And you can teach your children that here is an expression of the love of God to fallen man. You can look upon the beautiful things of nature, blighted now by the load of the curse, and they represent but feebly the joys that are to come. You visit the most beautiful places on earth and delight yourself in them, and yet, "eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, . . . the things which God had prepared for them that love Him!" (1 Corinthians 2:9.) How many there are that do not think of those things that God has given us. Now, if we could readily appreciate these blessings, then we would always be happy, but there is an enemy who is always working against us, so that the praise and gratitude which should flow forth from our lips is often withheld.--Ms 17, 1887, pp. 1, 3, 4. ("Practical Godliness," June 11, 1887.) Released May 20, 1977. {8MR 32.2}[2]
