The World\u2019s Wonders Are Visible In Just A Drop<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of Love.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second Chronicles 5:13-14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

… it was the duty of the trumpeters and singers to make themselves heard in unison in praise and thanksgiving to the Lord, and when the song was raised, with trumpets and cymbals and other musical instruments, in praise to the Lord, \u2018For he is good, for his steadfast love endures for ever\u2019, the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revelation 21:2-23<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the Lamb.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace For Today<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dull-drums of ho-hum life are never more persistent then when problems overwhelm us and we see no progress towards improvement. We have no hope, so we struggle to make ourselves get out of bed. We struggle to get on with any task at all. Getting to work is necessary but we barely make it. Getting home is an insurmountable chore, day after day. Especially if we have no home! Finding a reason to sleep is beyond us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not every life is this way. Not every day is this way for most of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then God<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then God shows up in awesome splendour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then God shows up in awesome splendour and astounds us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trumpets and cymbals may play, but God out plays them all, with stars dancing, winds singing, and creatures humming along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the light show prickles our skins and pierces our hearts with colours we\u2019d forgotten if ever we\u2019d seen them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a bit<\/p>\n\n\n\n

of God<\/p>\n\n\n\n

dancing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

for us<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to break the dull-drums<\/p>\n\n\n\n

off of us<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and get us back to thankful living.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
