How many are your works, O Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. These all look to you to give them their food at the proper time (Psalm 104:24, 27). Psalm 104 is a creation hymn weaving together several complimentary themes. Thus, it speaks into today's environmental fears. It may not dispel our fears, but it will challenge God's people to enter the conversation with a distinctly hopeful perspective. The first theme is that of the Lord as once-and-ongoing Creator. The creation story does not end with Genesis 2. God's fingers remain constantly immersed in the clay, shaping and moulding. Listen to some of the phrases: “He waters the mountains…He makes grass grow…You bring darkness…” In summary the singer writes, “All creatures look to you to give them their food at the proper time…when you take away their breath, they die and return to the dust. When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the ground (27,29,30). We are compelled to look for the Lord in creation and find His fingerprints in the trustworthy order, joyful nature, and ongoing wonder of re-creation. Being renewed spiritually by the Spirit of God does not remove us from His creation but sends us back to it with full anticipation that we will see much of and learn much from our redeemer as we dwell in this creation. A second theme is that of the creation's trustworthiness. Genesis 1:2 tells us that the earth was 'formless'. The Hebrew word here is more dramatic because it suggests 'chaos'. The rest of Genesis 1 tells how God created order out of this chaos. Throughout scripture evil is portrayed as attempting to push the world back into this chaos. But God's presence keeps things in order. Much of western scientific development is predicated on the belief that God created order and maintains it. Our delight is to find that order and use is for the good of humankind. Of course, there is evidence of chaos, such as storms like Fiona and Ian. We must note that, as destructive as these are, they are the exception. Most of the natural order carries on in an orderly fashion. We see the creation's trustworthiness is the daily, seasonal, and generational cycles. It is observable every time we plant a seed, and it grows, producing a new crop of food and/or beauty. God promised it would be so, and it is. God will not allow chaos to engulf his creation. He will hold chaos at bay until it if finally banished altogether. Thirdly, this psalm celebrates the sufficiency of creation. The Lord provides enough to satisfy the earth, the trees of the field, the wild animals, and indeed satisfies every living being with good things. In an age in which we fear that we cannot feed the people on earth, this psalm offers a necessary corrective. It gives motivation to all those who ponder the issues of food distribution. The problem is not lack of sustainability but human greed and avarice which hordes food and wastes it. Economic and political systems tend to be controlled by those who already have more than enough. For this reason, before the psalm closes, we read “but may sinners vanish from the earth and the wicked be no more” (35). Evil is perpetrated by people who do evil things. When we pray for God's shalom, we pray for an end to evil and those who refuse to turn away from chaos bringing acts. We grieve these destructive actions recognizing God's own sorrow when his creatures are extinguished by human selfishness. Finally, Psalm 104 celebrates God's joy in His creation. The Lord delights in Leviathan, creates wine to gladden the human heart, and rejoices in all His works. The psalmist himself rejoices in the song of praise, ending with “Praise the Lord, my soul. Praise the Lord.” God's gift of Sabbath to us is the gift to enjoy the creation. So let us sing this psalm and keep sabbath.

The Creation Song of Genesis 1 culminates on Day Seven, when God sanctifies the Sabbath. This reveals to us the nature of the relationship the Triune God has with the entire universe; this relationship is fundamentally non-utilitarian. Humans, the image-bearers of God, are invited to respond in worship and justice.

This week Jen sings us 'Ko Te Timatanga o Te Ao, the Māori Creation Song, and tells us a little about what it all means. Tangents include her pesky dishwasher and Tessa's love of Kura Pō.
The story of an aging pile of forgotten reel-to-reel tapes discovered on the shelf of a tribal elder on the Fort Mojave Reservation. Recorded by an amateur ethnographer in the 1960s, these tapes of the last Creation Song singer of the tribe recount the legends and origin of the Mojave people. They are oral maps of the desert region that were instrumental in helping to save the Ward Valley from becoming a nuclear waste dump site. In the 1960s, a CBS radio engineer out of Los Angeles, drove out to the Colorado River Indian Reservation in Parker, Arizona with his portable reel-to-reel tape recorder with the idea of recording the Mojave Indians. There he met Emmett Van Fleet, an elder of the tribe and the last of the Creation Song singers. Over the course of several years, Guy Tyler made his weekend pilgrimages, and slowly and meticulously the two men recorded the 525 song cycle that recounts the legend of the creation and origin of the Mojave people, their traditions, and their oral maps that describe historical journeys, sacred sites, and directions about how to safely cross the Mojave Desert. Emmett Van Fleet left the tapes to his nephew Llewllyn Barrackman. As years went by and technology changed, the tapes were unplayed and forgotten until Phillip Klasky and the Storyscape Project worked to get the the tapes transferred and preserved. In 1995, when action was taken to turn Ward Valley into a nuclear waste dump, traditional Mojave songs and song cycles helped save the endangered Ward Valley and Colorado River by proving the historic connection the Mojave have with this sacred land. In 1999 The Kitchen Sisters travelled to the Mojave Reservation with writer and environmentalist Phil Klasky, to meet with LLewllyn Barrackman and other Mojave the elders, birdsong singers and activists in the Ward Valley struggle. Produced with Phillip Klasky, Director of the Storyscape Project.
Understanding Genesis: The Creation Song (10-22-17) by Lapeer Community Church
Hello everyone, Mary and I had a wonderful interview, with our guest Janet Blair. Janet tells us her life story in her area of music. She played piano from the first grade to high school and she has a love and passion for orchestral music. When she became a Junior in high School (I think) she decided to take up the oboe. She got a scholarship and has two degrees in oboe performance. Her path at first was to be a trained classical performer. As time moves forward, Janet had a tragic event happens, in which she had a tough time figuring it all out BUT God gave her a way to process all she was feeling and that was the vehicle of song writing. Song writing became her way to cope with her emotions. Her first song was called "For Shania (I Will Wait)". She loves playing in the studio and singing. In this hour interview we listened and got stories on 5 songs from her new CD called "Songs for the Waiting". The five songs are called "Eternity Growing", "Jesusland", "For Shania (I Will Wait)", "Remember Hope" and "Creation Song". Now I'm not a critic, but I love each of these songs for it's own special style. "For Shania (I Will Wait)" and "Remember Hope" are beautifully written and heart felt in the performance. they even go together emotionally and spiritually. "Eternity Growing" and "Jesusland" are both just fun songs, with a message. "Creation Song" is a landscape of sound, mood and song composition, with beautiful and rhythmic percussion, wonderful melodies and elegant traveling piano parts. I know this interview with Janet can bless you and many, so please take the time and have a listen. If you wish to get a hold of Janet she has all the normal Social Media outlets BUT she would like you to come by her main webpage to start, so I'm only going to put down the link direct to her website. You can always get a hold of her direct at that website, and so here is the address:https://janetblairmusic.comWe hope this interview blesses everyone, if you have the time please check it out and share with all your family, friends, and social media outlets.
