November 14, 2011
I went for a run down to the beach this morning (which to
my estimate is 12k! Bloomsday’s got NOTHIN’ on me this year!), and it was such
a nice way to start the day. I listen to my Jesus music, and my mind is quiet,
which is quite possibly the only time in the whole day that it is! When I got
to the beach I just stood where the waves hit the shore, looking out into a
seemingly endless ocean and really meditating on how crazy big God is. (Crazy
though how He took all that He is and confined Himself into a human body!)
I started to think about how big and also how intricate
God is. He made the ocean thousands of miles deep. He created galaxies that are
still expanding to this day. He made insects and people and bears and dogs and
fish. He made Mt. Everest and an entire continent out of ice and snow. He made
the moon for astronauts, the sea for marine biologists, animals for zookeepers,
rainforests for ecologists, mountains for snowboarders, music for dancers,
instruments for musicians…and on and on!
It keeps hitting me recently how personal our God is. Like this morning on the beach He just quietly
reminded me that even if I was the only person He ever created, He still would
have made the ocean for me to enjoy and the world for me to travel.
Ahh. Isn’t Jesus awesome?
