Prayer of Naturalist

 

God is Nature.

Every aspect of Nature is important to us.

Our mind, body, and soul are guided by Nature.

We should not make the mistake of thinking that Nature is separate from us.

Nature is intricately interrelated with our existence.

Nature’s beauty blends with all natural gifts.

Nature is All in All, and embraces every aspect of our lives.

Create in us an appreciation of Nature’s manifestations.

The heavenly bodies – sun, moon, and stars, known and unknown planets, traverse the sky in orderly and phenomenal ways.

The wind, trees, oceans, mountains, and valleys speak their own language.

Let these manifestations soothe our minds and hearts when we are weary, tired, and broken-hearted.

Spring, summer, autumn, and winter with distinct moods refresh our souls.

Hurricanes,  tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and forest fires declare the omnipotence of Nature’s powers.

Birds, reptiles, fishes, and animals of all sorts are Nature’s diversity.  

We delight in these creatures of the air, land, and sea.

O God, these creatures breed, feed, and exist because of Your reality.

We breathe the fresh air, feast on delicious foods, and drink refreshing water from Nature’s abundance.

Many builds cozy homes, light fires, and cook meals because of Nature’s bountiful gifts.

These manifestations are only part of God’s Eternal Essence that exists within, below, and around us.

God is Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Immanent, and Transcendent.

No works can apply describe the sum of Nature’s all-encompassing abundance.

God, you dazzle us with many wonders in the natural world – With Cities, Treks, Adventure, Mountaineering, and Nature.

American City displays captivate fascinating buildings and places in Los Angeles, Honolulu, New Orleans, New York City, and Las Vegas.

Omniscient Creator, a city’s vibrancy delights our souls, and remind us of your incomprehensible greatness.

Amazing Treks like Kumano Kodo, Japan, Camino De Santiago, Spain, Tongario Alphine Crossing, New Zealand, Mount Roraima, Venezuela, Appalachian Trail, USA, and Inca Trail, Peru remain unforgettable.

God, these natural gifts are peaceful. Their very presence relaxes us, and our hearts leap with joy in paradise.

Adventure into the Cage of Death, Australia, Volcano Cerro Negro, Nicaragua, Glaciers, Iceland, Weightless Environment, USA, Extreme Catapult, Queenstown, New Zealand, and Canyoning, Da Lat, Vietnam are spell binding.

Almighty Presence, you fill us with awe as we explore these often-beaten earthly tracks.

Mountaineering like Skiing in The Alps, Switzerland, Venture with Berbers, Morocco, Scaling the Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, Trip through the Rockies, Canada, Relishing the Blue Mountains, Australia, and its Natural Wonder – The Great Barrier Reef are once in a life-time experiences.

O God, what great challenges you place before us! We ascend and descend life’s mighty mountains, and descend into the depths of the earth’s valleys.

Nature comes alive at South America’s Amazon Jungle, Be with Turtles, Hawaii, USA, Pigs, Big Major Cay, Bahamas, Wild Ponies, Assateague Island, USA, Flamingos, Aruba, African Penguins, Cape Peninsula, South Africa, Feline Friends, Aoshima, Japan, Kangaroos, Lucky Bay, Western Australia, Monkeys, and Phi Phi Islands, Thailand.

God, Thank You from the depth of our hearts! For you have crowned it all, and blessed us with a multiplicity of challenging experiences of Nature’s diversity throughout the great expanse of  earth’s civilization.
