Whales and dolphins!

I have fulfilled my childhood dreams of seeing the whales. I went to Kaikoura on Tuesday, and joined the whalewatch tour in Wednesday morning. I saw the sun rising from the edge of the sea, wandering albatrosses, mighty sperm whales, and numerous dusky dolphins. God's creation is truly incredible and wonderful.

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.

When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.

You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
you put everything under his feet:
all flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field,
the birds the air,
and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is you name in all the earth!
