"O Lord, God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and obey his commands." --Nehemiah 1:5 NIV
I like to stand in our backyard and look out on the night sky, sometimes, and see all of the constellations in the sky. On a clear night the stars are so bright and so many that I am in awe. At times I wonder about how God created such beauty and such awesomeness. That kind of "awesomeness" could only come from an awesome God, one that inspires awe.1
When we think of all that God can do in the universe and how He created such great things, we can begin to realize that what we go through, although very wounding, is very small in comparison. I believe God loves us with such a fervent, real love that His awesomeness helps us put everything into perspective.
When life is overwhelming remember that life and all its problems are not so big in comparison to a great and awesome God.
