Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
The same God that knows every star, every tiny point of light billions of miles away, knows me and my innermost thoughts and desires. And even more amazing is the idea that God still loves me in spite of what he knows about me.
The apostle Paul says it like this...
You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:6-8 NIV)
I think we so often take God's love for granted. We gather in buildings, surrounded by walls, covered by roofs, proclaiming a God who cannot be contained my either. There's nothing wrong with worshipping inside a building. But there was something about worshipping outside last night that provided a refreshing remembrance that my God is bigger than I could ever imagine.
Does this mean I won't face challenges? No, I live in a broken world.
Does this mean I won't fail? No, I am a broken person.
But it does mean that when I face challenges, I will never be alone. When I fail, I will not be condemned. The love and grace of God can overcome any challenge I face and any failure I might have.
shine!
