...Contemplating...


There are times in my life when I feel like I forget how AMAZING God is and has been through all my days. I am sitting here this morning totally awe struck as I contemplate on the Greatness of my God.
He has lead me along crazy terrain; mountains and valleys and many twists and turns! And I can look back and recognize His strong and Mighty hand that was holding mine the entire time.  I often wondered how it would all work out. I often questioned Him, and in the end He proved Himself to be true and right and perfectly in control of my days.
There is a scripture in Acts that has spoken to the very core of me time after time as I again realize WHO GOD IS.
“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything. Rather, He Himself gives everyone LIFE and BREATH and EVERYTHING else.  From one man He made all the nations that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the times set out for them and the EXACT places where they should live.  God did this so that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and FIND Him, though He is NOT far from any one of us.  ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.
Acts 17:24-28

Let us remember WHO GOD IS. We can rest fully on His identity and His love for us. May God freshly reveal to your heart that He KNOWS and that He is present.
