"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes , His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made . . ." Romans 1:20.
Let's start a list in the comment section below. Which items in God's creation lead you to worship God?
I'll begin: the stars. When I can get away from the city lights and see the stars at night, I am in awe of God. I am reminded of His "eternal power and divine nature." Have you considered that they all stay in place, forming the constellations that are recognizable generation to generation? They do not move out of their assigned location, which is so dependable that travellers are guided by them.
"Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created these stars, the One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; Because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power not one of them is missing" Isaiah 40:26.

"For God alone my soul in silence waits . . ." Psalm 62:1

Stars are a great example of that. Also that fact that even more stars can be seen in those "border" areas we seek mentioned earlier this month. Particulary heartfelt and meaningful music and art are an amazing expression of God and what is "real" in life. They express what often cannot be expressed in words.
Dogs make me think of God. They love their people. They have individual personalities. Their tales wag in happiness. What a gift God gave us in these creatures!
In a contented infant I see the wonder of God's incredible, unlimited creativity. The small arms and legs, and even tinier fingers and toes; the satin smooth skin; the toothless smile in the little mouth that receives nourishment from Mother.
All these show me that God is capable and caring. How grateful I am!
Mountains. Snow. River rapids. Red-winged blackbirds singing by a marsh. The whisper of the wind through pine trees. All nature sings its praise to God.
