How Great is Our God

 
The earth is tilted at an angle of 23 degrees to its orbit, which produces our seasons.  If the earth were not tilted just so, vapors from the oceans would have moved both north and south, resulting in uninhabitable continents of ice.  Evidently, if the moon were only 50,000 mile away form earth, instead of 200,000, the tides would be so huge that all the continents would be under water.”

Christina Rees, "The Divine Embrace: Discovering the Reality of God's Love.

Our master designer, the maker of heaven and earth is so awesome.  How great is our God!  This world will never produce a better designer than our great God who holds all things together.  He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, and in Him we find all that we need in life.  When we go through rough terrains, all we need to do is to focus on the Lord and He builds faith in us to conquer every battle.  Our smallness and frailty vanish and we magnify Him who is invincible, majestic and strong. 

Monte and I love to sit on the beach and gaze at the awesome night sky.  Soaking in the glory and beauty of our great God is pure delight.  In the tranquility and stillness, the Lord comes through to us as our dependable, reliable, loving and unfailing God who is ever faithful.  He is invincible, majestic and strong.
