I think I speak for most people when I say…my heart hurts this week.
With the bombings in Boston at the marathon and other injustices going on in our world, it’s easy to believe that God doesn’t care.
That He is just a Being in the sky who made the world and let it spin.
Or even…that He doesn’t exist.
Here’s the thing. I don’t know why God allowed the bombings. I don’t know why He allows bad things to happen to innocents, except so we see the darkness of our world and are drawn to Him — the light.
But I do know this.
He is so much bigger than we can imagine.
And even though evil may seem to have an upper hand, its “reign” is temporary.
God will overcome.
He is greater, stronger, more powerful than we know.
That’s why I love Chris Tomlin‘s “Our God.” It reminds me that God is in control.
And that I’m so, so, SO glad that I’m not.
Your Turn: What attribute of God has meant the most to you lately?
His faithfulness. Honestly, I just can't get over it. He is always, always faithful…
Great is Thy Faithfulness, O God My Father… mmm. Love it. He's faithful even when we aren't.
His tenderness. It always sends me to my face which is where I've needed to be lately. Love this song!
I've been on my face a lot lately too, Jess!
I love this song, Lindsay. I think for me it's the fact that He loves me–completely, passionately, perfectly, unconditionally. No matter what I do, He loves me and is for me.
It's really hard to comprehend that kind of love, isn't it?
This is one of my current favorite worship songs. Right now, God's perfect timing stands above the rest. For so many reasons. Thanks for the listen!
So true…His timing is everything!
His love. I'm constantly reminded of His great love for us. Thank you for sharing these Worship Wednesdays with us.
His love is so deep and it's really hard to comprehend!!
