As a father pities his children, So the Lord pities those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.
Isaiah 55:8-9
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts."
Have you ever considered just who God and Jesus are? Saviour, Lord, Master, Father, Redeemer, the Rock are just a few of the names we call them. But who are they really? There is a blog I stumbled upon a few weeks ago that has really made me stop and think about some issues I didn't realize were issues. This blog is http://gentleshepherdbaptist.blogspot.com . This morning I read an article of the silence of Heaven. To me God is real, but most of the time seems so far away......yet in the article my minds eye came up with a visual of God stopping all in Heaven just to hear my prayer, to hear from me. A nobody. The Bible tells us that God is the Creator, He is the Alpha and Omega. He is the beginning and the end. Many of times we get so busy that God becomes the President, someone to respect, fear and admire. And when we get His attention we eat it up. I forget that I get His attention every day. He is the One who breathes life into my body. He is the One who leads or rather I should say whispers and if I'm listening to Him, leads. Don't misunderstand what I just said, God is the supreme Ruler over all yet He gives us a free choice to follow, listen and obey. The problem is I don't listen 98 % of the time. He is the One who allows food to come across my table. He is the One who sends sunshine and rain. He is the One who waits patiently and lovingly for me to come to Him. He is the One when I stumble picks me and loves the hurt away. He is the One who watches me stumble and maybe not pick me up, but lets me cry to be able to get up and try again (I don't like the tough love thing very much, but who am I to question.) He is the One who loves me unconditionally. He is the One who hates it when I make rebellious decisions. He is the One who picks up the pieces when those decisions make me fall flat on my face. He is the One who protects. He is the One who gives me the desires of my heart. He is the One who.................that's just it...........He is the One!
Father, let me be filled with You today............I love you.......
