"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows."
Matthew 10:29-31

Seeing God everywhere




Have you ever taken a minute out of your day to look at the wonders of God? God shows himself through His art. Just looking at a tree for instance or even a flower, did you know that both of these things defeat gravity. Gravity the thing that keeps us on the ground and not floating in the air. Those beautiful flowers and trees all have water going UP to survive, they defeat gravity. It is the little things that God does that show us parts of Him. Like why a caterpillar has 248 muscles in its head. Or things such as ice circles where a river bend will create enough force called a rotational shear. That rotational shear will break a chunk of ice off and will twist it around and grinding it making it a PERFECT circle. What are the point of these ice circles? Or why do we have so much force in our blood that if an artery broke it can squirt to about 30 feet. All these things plus many more add up to God’s beauty. None of those things could be done without God. That much detail into one caterpillar can only be done by a God who loves us enough to show us his wonders. His art speaks of himself, reflecting who he is and what he is like.  


Genesis 1:31 "God saw all that He had made, and it was very good."

In Him.

Hosanna

I see the King of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes
I see His love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing, the people sing

Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest 
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hillsong_united/hosanna.html ]
I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity




This song I have heard over and over again in my lifetime like many of you. But I have never actually read the words of the song until tonight. What an amazing song, I want to see the King of Glory coming from the clouds. I want to have a selfless faith that stirs others. To show love to others like God shows love to us. Walking daily from Earth to Eternity. 
"If you decide to take your salvation and calling seriously you will live as though Jesus died yesterday walked out of his grave today and is returning tomorrow." 


In Him
