The Psalmist is teaching that God created everything in the world in its own unique way, which is never duplicated. And yet the Psalmist compares it to the words we use to describe the beauty of this diverse creation. And yet the voice that is heard is God's view of His master piece according to His pleasure. Not only does God create and understand the complexity and real beauty of His creation, but He must also create the creature's view of His creation. The creation is not only a diversity of God's creation but each creature has its own unique perspective.We can say that God understands the real view of His creation as the voice goes out, but our view is created by using the pronouncements in enjoying the beauty. This is why the Psalmist compares the voice that goes out into the earth with God's axioms that create the animation in our experience. We are like the artist who uses the axioms to create our experience and the quality of our live as the voice that tells the story of our lives. We are born in a world of a cast of characters that become creations in our world through the axioms.We can compare our artistic ability in pronouncing to the Wizard of Oz. Dorothy is surrounded by the cast of characters in Kansas that will be the characters who are part of the fairy tale in which Dorothy must get to the land of Oz so she can get her glass slippers and return to Kansas. We are born with the ability to create our own fairy tales, using the people in our lives as the cast of characters. God created everyone in an image that is continually changing.People tend to see things differently. In order to see things the way God does, we need to follow His guidelines. This will help us create a world that is a true reflection of God's image.The Psalmist is describing the human condition in Psalm 19 - our tendency to live according to our own view, rather than God's. We are not naturally comfortable with God's ongoing creation of us and our world, and so we do not depend upon Him to change our view according to His.We do not allow God to create something that must be illuminated to us in using The pronouncements. We are always making judgments about ourselves and others by what we think God has said. But the Psalmist is teaching that he has the ability to pronounce a totally new view of himself and others. He is always forming a new view so he is comfortable in always changing his view.
