X-treme conference is over and I am astounded by God's greatness. Grant Layman showed us a poster of the universe and where we fit into it. Our earth is sooo extremely small comparatively. That makes us like a speck of dust. And God is the great King of the universe. Above all. I was trying to relate it to something tangible. I'm thinking we are to God like a speck of dust on the floor is to us. I can't even see the dust just 5 feet away from me with my finite eyes. Yet God sees everything about us. He knows us, knows our thoughts,our feelings.
Nothing is hidden from His view. God has set his glory above the heavens. Creation can merely reflect His glory. And this our purpose in this life. To reflect His glory. And yet His glory is beyond my capacity to truly understand it's greatness. My mind is too small! If I could remember all this when the trials of life come my way I would not give way to worry.
