We are so tiny, yet we can be so proud.
I love reading from Isaiah regularly. It keeps me in perspective of the absolute majesty of our God in comparison to our pathetic shuffling around on this planet. Almighty God started everything. He is the beginning, He is the middle, and He is the end. None of us can ever rival his magnificent power or calm His mighty hand when it moves. People spend so much time on this planet trying to control the only things that we have the ability to affect; material goods and other human beings. The only thing men create without the assistance of God are wars, environmental disasters, poverty, hunger, suffering, and opression; to name but a few of our many talents.
Having said that, this awesome God who created the universe with a wave of His hand also created each and every one of us in His image. He loves us. He cares so much about us among all other creatures, that He even rights our wrongs against Him. The ultimate reconciliation of man's indiscretion against God was His forgiveness and then the sacrifice of His only son, Jesus Christ. We need to really let it sink in that such a powerful, all-knowing deity had the wisdom to do that. God knows what's best for us, and even though we resist, He never gives up on us.
It just amazes me that after all we've done to reject Christ, that we can just reach out to Him when we need his love, and He takes our hand and comforts us. No questions asked. All God asks is for us to acknowledge that He is indeed Lord of all, King of Kings, the Saviour King, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.
