O LORD, You are my God; I will exalt You, I will give thanks to Your name; For You have worked wonders, plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness.
I am sitting here reflecting on:
1. The ENORMOUSNESS of God.
2. The itty-bitty-ness of man
It all started with a video by Louie Giglio last night, and then reading a bedtime story called, "What is Heaven Like?".
I should record this for you someday :), but my kids and I were singing "Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty" tonight. Their adorable little voices were singing with such serenity and sincerity.
Who am I, that God would be mindful of me? Have you stepped outside lately and looked out toward the heavens? And your eye can not even see it all!!!
I am itty-bitty---He is inconcievably ENORMOUS!
And yet, He cares for each one of us horribly selfish sinners who ignore Him and reject Him every day! I can't imagine how much pain I've caused Him. And the thing is, He is our Creator that continues to love us, plan good things for us, and send His only Son to die for US. I'm trying, but I can't put it all into words!!!!
Jeremiah 23:24
“Can a man hide himself in hiding places So I do not see him?” declares the LORD. “ Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?” declares the LORD.
1 Corinthians 2:9
But just as it is written, “ THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.”
Psalm 33:8
Let all the earth fear the Lord. Let all who live in the world stand in awe of him.
Oh LORD, I am so insignificant compared to your GRATENESS! Help me make life all about YOU and not about me.
