RESEARCH ON FAITH 1

  Insight Many psalms celebrate the greatness of God as the Creator and Sustainer of the physical world. These are known as “nature psalms” (for example,  Psalms 8 ,  19 ,  29 ,  33 ,  65 ,  95 ,  104 ,  135 ,  148 ).  Psalm 104  celebrates and glorifies God as the Creator and Sustainer of all creation.  Verses 10–23 describe how He creates, cares for, sustains, and renews His creation. The psalmist also exalts God as the source of life—who holds the power of life and death of every creature on earth—and highlights His providence and provision for His creatures (vv. 24–30). In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus too speaks of God as our Sustainer. He asks us to consider how the Father feeds the birds of the air and clothes the grass of the field ( Matthew 6:26 ,  30 ).
