"Its falling from the clouds
A strange and lovely sound
I hear it in the thunder and rain
It's ringing in the skies
Like cannons in the night
The music of the universe plays
Its singing
You are Holy, Great and Mighty
The moon and the stars declare who You are"-
Phil Wickham – Cannons
It's the details of everything that you can get the real blessings of our amazing God. We all can be found guilty when we get busy with our daily priorities and duties for sustaining our "life'. I got the oppurtunity to stay two months out in the country of West Texas. Where wild animals could roam, the cows would graze, the wind blew without material interference and obstacles to make breaks in it's path. The noise of people's daily lives of commute. It was just the sound of the birds, of tumble weeds and the sound of Gods unending Love and Beauty. We have lost respect for the details of Gods magnificent awe. The "awe" feeling of reverantial respect mixed with fear or wonder. We get use to the routine of our surroundings. It's breathtaking. How everything is so perfectly formed, colored, and made. If earth is so beautiful, think about how heaven will be? I am so over come at the love of our Father shown to us through his work. Its undeniable. We get manipulated by the social networks and so involved with "likes" and "comments" and who is doing what and where, that we get sucked in and miss the oppurtunity for God to speak to our hearts and show us things. What if people went and fellowshipped with Jesus as many times and as many hours as they do on social networks? If we did that, we would start to see the details of LIFE clearer because we would be closer to Gods heart. God is Life.
You know the feeling you get when someone else claims your creativity or work? How they get prasied for it? I wonder how God feels, when people compare his work to some Big Bang Theory or any of the other evolution mumbo jumbo stuff. I bet it saddens Him, like it would for any of us. And that saddens me. Just some thoughts.
I feel like I have so much to write, but I can't seem to frame it into words. I have never been a writer so each blog I start to write seems like a challenge. Before going completey off the map of the point I am trying to convey, I will just say this. Take time to see the gifts God has given us. The beauty he has so maticulously created for you and me. Take time to thank Him for that.
For the Lord is a great God
And a great King above all gods, in whose hand are the depths of the earth, the peaks of the mountains are His also. The sea is His, for it was He who made it, and His hands formed the dry land. Come, let us worship and bow down, Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. Psalms 95:3-6
