In Our Faces Wonders,
and Almost Hidden Wonders …
All Leave Us Awestruck …
Deuteronomy 3:24
O Lord God, you have only begun to show your servant your greatness and your might; what god in heaven or on earth can perform deeds and mighty acts like yours!
1 Corinthians 12:6
… and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone.
…
Words of Grace For Today
Many people through the ages have looked in awe at things found in nature, as huge as the sky reaching across the universe or as tiny as the parts of an atom, and given God credit for creating an awesome universe for us to live in.
As well we have experienced first hand the power of storms, cold and hot, with violent, destructive winds; we have experienced the immense stillness of a calm day from atop a mountain looking out over snow, trees, lakes, rivers and oceans; we have experienced the fresh crisp air of a sunny winter day, and the warm sunrise of an early summer morning; we have marvelled at how life returns in the spring to the plants, and how life begins in animals and in our own children;
and we have been in awe of all that God has created.
There is, though, no greater wonder to behold, than God’s forgiveness, which allows us to heal after we are hurt or have hurt others.
This is the wonder of wonders,
that gives us renewed life each morning, noon, and night.
