The Grandeur
How often do we look at amazing things and forget how astonishing they are. We forget sometimes how small we are and how, in the sheer size of creation, insignificant we appear. Don’t believe me? Go find someplace dark (a mountain perhaps) away from the incandescent, fluorescent man-made attempts at illumination and just look up. WOW! Just WOW! Stars beyond count, majesty beyond words. Yet, this is only a small glimpse of the created. A small Instagram snapshot of the Creator. It is all around us, the Glory. Yet we allow it to become familiar, ordinary, boring...
This is all well and good, coming back to a more accurate understanding of the Creator and His glory. Yet, we can’t leave it there. It DEMANDS a response. He REQUIRES a response. Let’s not allow the sin of omission to continue to deceive us. Friends, we are all yielded to someone. Beloved, we all serve something. My hope is that you would look at the Creator of all, the only one worthy to be called glorious, and make serving Him your goal.
113 Praise the Lord!
Praise, O servants of the Lord,
praise the name of the Lord!
Praise, O servants of the Lord,
praise the name of the Lord!
2 Blessed be the name of the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore!
From the rising of the sun to its setting,
the name of the Lord is to be praised!
from this time forth and forevermore!
From the rising of the sun to its setting,
the name of the Lord is to be praised!
4 The Lord is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens!
and his glory above the heavens!
Psalms 113:1-4 (ESV)
