Towards the end of "The Creator" post, I mentioned how God created all the stars billions of miles away, but also made us with great detail. As I was falling asleep last night, I thought about how God created everything including the things billions of miles away. From here, it is quite easy to see that God is a pretty big guy and must be pretty powerful in looking at everything he created out of nothing.
God is massive! Right now, our universe is calculated to be over 93 billion light years wide! That's pretty big, but God is bigger than that. We, as humans, cannot fathom how big God actually is. In the same way, we cannot comprehend how great God's love for us really is. Sometimes, its easy to think that God is so huge that there is no way he could know us personally. However, Luke 12:6-7 states,"...But God never overlooks a single one. And he pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail-even numbering the hairs on you head!"Isn't that cool! God knows us greater than we know ourselves. He knows us personally. To have a God powerful enough to create our universe, but also know everything about us is truly special. We don't have to feel alone or unwanted because God is always with us and always loves us.
Our mission in life, is to bring God praise and to spread the love he has to offer to everyone(Matthew 22:36). But how often do we actually try to do this? How often do we live our lives trying to bring God praise in everything that we do? I know that I never live like this enough. I get caught up in other things that I view as "more important." But in God's eyes, there is not anything more important than loving God with all of our hear, mind, and soul.
With a New Year, we have a chance to sort of "start over" or renew our goal and mindsets. I want to challenge you to live in a way that brings God praise and love. I challenge you to make God a "massive" part of your life because he is massive. Our lives should be completely focused on him at all times. Have a great New Year!
