Dan and I have been blessed with the opportunity to spend some time enjoying parts of God’s creation that we have never seen before. We flew out yesterday, and I had not been in the air since 2001. Flying is a bit of a hassle, but I still enjoy it. I spent a lot of time looking out the window at the beauty of this Earth God has created. It’s interesting during takeoff to watch everything diminish down to the point that you can’t even see it. Major highways look like pencil marks and steep mountains look like little hills. I reflected back to our recent worship service, Passionette, as Louie Giglio pointed out how tiny and insignificant our planet truly is and how massive and great our God is. I can not even wrap my mind around all that he has created. Today we are going to the Grand Canyon, and we will absolutely stand in awe at its beauty. Even still, that is just a tiny part of the universe that we live in, and the God who created it is the same God who cares about me. Psalm 139 says “17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! 18 If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You.” That is absolutely amazing. As big as He is, and as huge as His creation is, He loves tiny little insignificant me. And yet the worship that I offer to Him for who He is and what He has done in my life is all too often a pathetic attempt instead of a true praise.
How Great is our God.
