God is Big. I have found it so easy just to forget this at times. When you seem at a dead end in your own personal plans for the future and life. Then you get this gentle tapping on your shoulder, a tiny nudge on your arm, a thought of the vastness of our God.
A buddy of mine shared a song with me the other day and it really made me think. I can't remember the name of the song or the artist but I do remember the theme. It spoke of how I've read the words a thousand times and did all the right things, but forgot of the vastness of His true glory. The chorus spoke of how we simply walk on the shores of His greatness and marvel at what might be at the ocean's floor.
God is so much more than a moral standard or words on pages. He is the creator of all things, the force behind our world, the wrath that crushes our world . . . He is the altar, the King, the Almighty . . . He is the LAW, the author, the protector . . . He can crush the world with a thought! Yet he is the inventor of love, beauty, and peace. He came down as man to die upon a tree . . . . for me. Yet I worry, I doubt, and I think I can make the difference.
Boy, what a wake up call. . . His plans for us are much more important that our own. I pray His will not my own!
