Joy Comes in the Morning
The Work of Your Fingers
When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels And You have crowned him with glory and honor.

The Moon never Beams without bringing me Dreams
Annabel Lee
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
The Sun knows when to go down
He made the moon to mark the seasons, and the sun knows when to go down. You bring darkness, it becomes night , and all the beasts of the forest prowl. The lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God. The sun rises, and they steal away, they return and lie down in their dens. How many are your works, Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number--living things both large and small.
~Psalm 104:19-26 NIV
The Clouds are His Chariot
The Lord wraps himself in light as with a garment; he stretches out the heavens like a tent. and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters. He makes the clouds his chariot and rides on the wings of the wind. He makes winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants. He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.
`Psalm 104:2-5
Stirring Up the Sea
This is what the Lord says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars, to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar--the Lord Almighty is his name.
~Jeremiah 31:35
Who will inherit the Wind?
Whoever troubles his own household will inherit the wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.
~Proverbs 11:29 ESV
A Mighty Rushing Wind
When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
~Acts 2:1-4 ESV
Peace! Be Still!
~Mark 4:39 ESV
The Wind Blows Where it Wishes
"The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the spirit."
~John 3:8 ESV

See How Flowers of the Field Grow
"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you--you of little faith?"
Matthew 6:28-30 NIV
Awake, North Wind, and Come, South Wind!
Season of Singing has Come
See! The Winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.
~Song of Songs 2:11-12 NIV
How the Wild Flowers Grow
"Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these."
~Luke 12:27
