i read this the other day. it's by louie giglio,
"when God is not greatly praised, it's only because we don't think he's that great of a God. when our worship is small, it's because our concept of God is small. when we offer God little bitty sacrifices, it's because we've some how reduced him in our hearts to a little bitty God. our vision has become clouded, our hearts distracted!
as result our lives shirvel into insignificance and meaningless. we just bump along in this mass of humanity, having no clue what life's all about. we fret. we get depressed. we worry and get bent out of shape. we go down all kinds of dead-end paths as we try to accomplish everything by ourselves.
we lose sight of the reality of all realities:
there's an infinite, limitedless God high and exalted on his throne, ruling with all power and authority over the heavens and the earth. a God who's still running the show-running our lives and running the whole universe on his timetable.
and at this very moment while he holds entire galaxies in place by his power, he also invites us at any time of day or night to look up andbehold him as he is!"
