Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
1 Corinthians 29:11
I love wonder!
(like you didn’t know that!)
Yesterday morning I was introduced with the guest post of today, and it is FULL of wonder!
A few years back the band Starfield produced a song called Filled with Your Glory (written by Tim and Jon Neufeld), which expresses the realization of how great the Creator of the heavens and the Earth is, in a manner similar to David in Psalm 8. The wonder of God’s ordered creation is expressed in the following lyrics :
“From the ends of the earth
To the heights of Heaven
Your glory, Lord, is far and wide
Through history You reign on high
From the depths of the sea
To the mountain’s summit
Your power, Lord, it knows no bounds
A higher love cannot be found
So let the universe proclaim
Your great power and Your great name
The whole earth
Is filled with Your glory, Lord
Angels and men adore
(Mountains bow and oceans roar)
Creation longs for what’s in store
May You be
Honored and glorified
Exalted and lifted high
Here at Your feet I lay my life”
In a similar way, the extreme photographic skills shared in the following TED talk, by Louie Schwartzberg, depict the power, the majesty, the glory and the intricacy of detail and order that our world holds.
How GREAT the Father’s love for us … that He would provide wonders anew every morning!
