Feeling Small in the World Today?

Kris Wolfe“When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?

You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.
You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their feet:”

~Psalm 8:3-6

David was probably taking a walk at night and admiring God’s work through the moon and stars and wondering why He is “mindful” of us at all.

Have you ever been in the midst of nature and felt overwhelmed by its beauty? Have you ever been so in awe that you felt small? I have: Walking through the woods and admiring the changing season, or standing next to the massive, powerfully audible ocean surrounded my millions of grains of sand, each created by God. We wonder why we were created (as humankind) or why “we” were created as __________ (insert your name here).

Maybe today is a good day to take a walk and admire God’s work. Or maybe it’s a good day to just look out the window and let His beauty rush over you. Let’s talk with God today and chat with Him about our purpose. And let’s listen, I mean REALLY listen to what He says. And don’t afraid to be moved by it. Today could be the be the beginning of a movement that matters.
