Reflections on Psalm 92 & 148 (Bro Benedict Chng)

Our recent Cameron Highland trip certainly brought me closer to our community and God. Just standing at the top of the tea plantation watching the vast vegetation below or gazing into the pin hole of the dark with the cool bracing wind blowing past my face simply brings an element of awe.


Reflecting on Psalm 92 and 148, one can only acknowledge that God is an artist extraordinaire. Easy to be impressed, most brilliant, creative artist ever to exist. While at the garden, I asked myself “Why did God make flowers? They're not necessary. Although they may have some purposes, one kind of flower in one single color could have been made to meet all the needs.


The fact is: flowers are not needed. They are "extra," something far, far beyond merely what was needed. We could live without flowers, but life is so much more beautiful with them.

God desires our joy to be full. It is indeed a great joy when we have a close fellowship with the Creator, and can be able to appreciate and thank Him for all the wonderful things He has provided for us because of His great love. In that context, things are a great
blessing, because they are a constant reminder of the goodness
and love of God. Whenever I see flowers, or whenever I think of the abundance God has provided, it reminds me of His love, and I say, "Thank You Lord, for flowers. Thank you Lord for the Hills and Trees"
