So big . . .

TODAY’S PROVERB: “ADONAI brought me forth, the first of His way, before His works of old. From eternity I was appointed from the beginning, before the world began. Proverbs 8:22-23

Every once in awhile, I love to ponder on the BIGNESS of God. Just one of those selah-moments where I pause and meditate on how awe inspiring He is. Meditating on those passages that speak of eternity and creation remind me of His omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience.

Then, contemplating the juxtaposition of these mind-blowing characteristics of God with the persistent message in His word that He, the Creator of the Universe, LOVES us. (Psalm 37:8; Psalm 146:8; John 14:21, 23; John 16:27; Hebrews 12:6)

Think on that a few minutes.

He knows the number of hairs on our head. (Matthew 10:30)

He loves us so much He sent His Son to atone for our sins. That takes us even deeper into the universe of true love. (Revelation 1:5)

That He places a part of Himself in us (John 14:26).

How can such a mighty Being care for us in this way?

Frankly, I would have given up on humanity — on me –eons ago. But, ponder this, when the earth was spoken into existence — when wisdom was brought forth — He knew us.

As He created the skies, moon, sun, stars, He saw us today, tomorrow, and our ultimate glorious union with Him.

How awesome is our God! Who wouldn’t want a Father like that?

May our hearts expand to receive and rejoice in the awesomeness of our God, my friends.
