They are the shoot He hath planted, the work of His hands, for the display of His splendor. Ohhh, all those who revere his Law of love, even the earth itself comes in subjection to them.
Romans 8:20-22 kjv
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
