2-25-21 THOUGHTS

Last Tuesday we discussed God’s infinite nature and majesty.  
Rom 11:33-36    Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways! 34  For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, OR WHO BECAME HIS COUNSELOR? 35  Or WHO HAS FIRST GIVEN TO HIM THAT IT MIGHT BE PAID BACK TO HIM AGAIN? 36  For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

The song  I STAND IN AWE,  has been running through my mind since Tuesday. The second verse below is new to me.  So intending once again to share GOD’S AWESOME BEING...
     “You are beautiful beyond description  Too marvelous for words
Too wonderful for comprehension  Like nothing ever seen or heard
Who can grasp Your infinite wisdom?  Who can fathom the depth of Your love?
You are beautiful beyond description  Majesty, enthroned above
     You are beautiful beyond description  Yet God crushed You for my sin
In agony and deep affliction  Cut off that I might enter in
Who can grasp such tender compassion?  Who can fathom this mercy so free?
You are beautiful beyond description  Lamb of God who died for me
     And I stand, I stand in awe of You  I stand, I stand in awe of You
Holy God, to whom all praise is due  I stand in awe of You”

Col 2:2-3    that their hearts may be encouraged, having been knit together in love, and attaining to all the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding, resulting in a true  knowledge of God’s mystery, that is, Christ Himself, 3  in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

My Prayer:
Oh God, your Majesty and Being is so far beyond us. Help us that we may truly stand in awe of you with each breath.  May we abide in you, and you in us.  Guide our steps to please you as adopted children.  Work in us and through us that we might be fruitful in the Kingdom.  Accept our love and praise.     In the name of Jesus                 Amen
