1 in the beginning

It seems unfortunately too seldom that we praise You for being You. We ask You a lot of questions and we request a lot of things but how often do we take a look around and marvel in what You have already done. That since before the beginning of time You knew I would be sitting here this morning thinking about this. You created everything. Every little molecule on this planet...in the universe. But You didn't stop there. You have had Your hand in everything since. Heartbroken by the fall, You have shepherded us through a world twisted and bent by the evil one. An evil one that cannot see or acknowledge that he only exists because You allow him to. For the evil one does not spend much time thinking about Your greatness. When he looks at the beauty you created it wounds his pride and frustrates him. It challenges him to destroy it. For it is a reminded that there is a true God much greater than him. Let that always be a comfort to us. Let that be a rallying cry. Thank You Lord that you are the greatest. Thank You that you are the creator of all. Thank You that You haven't gone anywhere, rather work from inside us to redeem the entire world. Let us never forget that we are infused with Your Spirit. Let us never forget why You have us here.

In Christ's name
