Bible Commentary

Proverbs 30:19

The four wonders are: the eagle's flight (effortless mastery of the air), the snake's movement over rock (silent, trackless motion), the ship's path through the sea (leaving no trace on the deep), and the way of a man with a maiden (the mystery of love and attraction between two people). All four leave no trace and cannot be fully explained — they are marvels of created nature.

Memory phrase: God's creation fills us with awe.

Talk about it: What is the most amazing thing you have ever seen in nature?

Prayer: God, Your creation is full of wonderful mystery.
