When I see something like that, all I can think is what an awesome and loving God I serve! Its hard for me to not believe there is a God who is loving and kind when I see such beauty as that.
Deuteronomy 10:17
“For ADONAI your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty and awesome God, who has no favorites and accepts no bribes.“
There are so many things in daily life that remind me of what an awesome God I serve. I feel such privilege to be able to serve the great, mighty and awesome God that He is!
I’ve never really been a fan of Rich Mullins nor the song Awesome God, but I was listening to it this week and actually listened to the words. Pretty powerful really!
When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain’t just putting on the ritz
(Our God is an awesome God)
There’s thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
(Our God is an awesome God)
And the Lord wasn’t joking
When He kicked ‘em out of Eden
It wasn’t for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
And so you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
And when the sky was starless
In the void of the night
(Our God is an awesome God)
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
(Our God is an awesome God)
Judgement and wrath He poured out on Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not
Too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
This line: “I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that our God is an awesome God” really caught my attention. We get so caught up with life sometimes that we do forget what an awesome and mighty God he is.
Psalms 47:2
“For ADONAI ‘Elyon is awesome, a great king over all the earth.“
He truly is and He deserves so much more than we can give Him, yet, He still loves us! What an awesome God He is!
