I am in awe of Him. Seems every time I turn around I am viewing evidence of God at work, not only in my own life, but the lives of people around me. Not simply the "oh, isn't that a nice coincidence" sort of thing, but the "that couldn't be anything but God" sort of thing. It almost leaves me speechless...which is amazing in itself!
God is working all around us, but oftentimes we are too busy to recognize the hand of the Creator. Once you begin to see things for what the truly are, you find yourself looking even harder, not wanting to miss a single thing. Every moment could bring something amazing...one more reason to praise Him.
The thing I find even more amazing is that He chooses to use me in what He's doing. He certainly doesn't need me to get things done. I'm pretty confident the God of the Universe could accomplish His purposes without me. What an incredible privilege it is to be a part of the work He is doing in people's lives. Wow.
Lord, help me to have heaven eyes today. To look at the world around me with an eternal perspective, not missing out on the miracles you are doing. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of Your work here on earth.
He IS everywhere!
Tuesday I was going to a MOPS group to speak and had to stop at a gas station to get directions - turning in off a busy road.
When I was leaving the station I was turning right, but had to immediately cross two lanes of traffic to get into the left turn lane for the light. I said, "OK, Lord, how am I going to do this?" And then I saw the traffic was absolutely clear and I pulled right into the lane I needed. I laughed and said, "Oh, that's how. Thank You!"
Some might say it was coincidence. I think NOT!
Hi. Even though I am a first-time visitor to your blog, I really wanted to jump in, in agreement of God's greatness. I saw it myself in a very big way yesterday, as I was reminded once again that He holds all of us securely in the palm of His hand, and is always in control. His plans are perfect, and He is never surprised. Thanks for posting His praises... it was refreshing to come along and read and to be able to join you in praise of Him! :)
