Psalm 33:8 “Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!”

Stars have to be one of my favorite creations. The stars have zero purpose, besides our sun which without it we would freeze, but I’m talking about the stars that are billions of miles away. The stars that I lay out in the field looking at in complete awe of my Creator. The Lord spoke The biggest stars into creation simply by the vapor of His mouth. The Largest of starts were spoken into existence with our Lord’s mouth. That is such a crazy thought, and the Lord created them just to show us more of His amazing character. He created those stars for our pleasure, there is no other explanation for it. I am so guilty of putting my Lord into this box, into this little tangible thing, but our Lord is so big and amazing that the biggest things in all of creation were only His breath. I know for me, I need to take more time to appreciate his creation. I need to look for the Lord’s beauty and goodness in not only the large details but also the little details. Look at a snowflake. There is no reason for the Lord to design every individual snowflake differently, yet He does. The Lord loves us so much that He wants us to find pleasure in the beauty of His creation. He wants us to look at all of creation and turn to Him to say, “Wow Lord, I can not comprehend Your amazing creations. You are bigger and more amazing and my mind will never be able to comprehend all of your amazing qualities.” The Lord wants us to enjoy all but as Psalm 131:1 states “O LORD, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.” we are called to realize the Lord is greater and we are called to not attempt to understand things that are too marvelous for our small minds.

James 1:5

As I sit here in Antigua Guatemala on an extremely chilly morning in the court yard looking at the top of the Agua volcano I wonder how I ended up here. This obviously wasn't in my own power, both God and I knew that I needed something radical in order to turn my life around. God, who knows all, picked me up out of Hanover Massachusetts and Flew me 8 hours south to Central America. God’s wisdom is abundantly greater than my own, and intact I wouldn't have an ounce of wisdom without Him. My God can see what happened, what is happening, and what is going to happen. He knows the way for me. The Lord has an amazing plan for me and He has that because He is wise. “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare (peace) and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11. God already knows my future because He lives outside of time. He has a plan and I have no idea what that is. God has mad me some promises for my life and I know that my God...

Psalm 111:10

What is wisdom? The quality of having experience, knowledge and good judgement. (New Oxford Dictionary) How often am I willing to hear my Lord’s wisdom? Not as often as I should, thats for sure. The great thing about our Lord is the fact that He didn't need to come to the earth to show us He understood and had the experience, knowledge, and good judgement, but he did. Jesus Christ came to this earth with the wisdom of the Lord in Him. He had an ear willing to listen to God’s voice. Being more like my Lord, Jesus Christ, is something that I try to strive for on a daily basis, and every single day I fall short of that because I am imperfect, but if I carry the wisdom of the Lord with me I don't have to trip up on the little things. If I practice wisdom and I mean really practice it, I can only imagine what God will show me in return.  God calls us to love each other unconditionally because why? Because it wise. My Lord understands how wise it is to love one another as He has ...

Psalm 17:15

From the moment that I awake I should be satisfied. From the very beginning of each and every day I should be satisfied in the Lord. If I am being completely honest, I often forget to come before the Lord the second I wake up, before I even get out of bed. I often forget to ask the Lord for my desires to match His desires for my life, let alone that specific day. I often find myself lacking joy, lacking wisdom, lacking the Lord in my day. It is then that I realize I am lacking those things because I never came before the Lord and asked Him to fill me with His joy. I never came before Him that day to ask him for His wisdom. Looking at the word awake in another sense, we are never to be asleep in the Lord. We should be constantly moving forward, constantly seeking to be at the foot of the cross waiting for Him to speak into our lives. The Lord warns us, multiple times in 1st Thessalonians 5:2, 1st Peter 3:10, Revelation 16:15, etc. that He will be coming like a thief in the night. No...
