Prodigal: I’m getting tired.

Me: Quit your hemmin’ and hawn’ and keep moving.

Prodigal: I guess we don’t have a choice sometimes.

This is from the Great House of God by Max Lucado

Nature is God’s workshop. The sky is his resume. The universe if his calling card. You want to know who God is? See what he has done. You want to know his power? Take a look at his creation. Curious about his strength? Pay a visit to his home address: 1 Billion Starry Sky Avenue…..

He is untainted by the atmosphere of sin,

unbridled by the time line of history,

unhindered by the weariness of the body.

What controls you doesn’t control him. What troubles you doesn’t trouble him. What fatigues you doesn’t fatigue him. Is an eagle disturbed by traffic? No, he rises above it. Is the whale perturbed by a hurricane? Of course not, he plunges beneath it. Is the lion flustered by the mouse standing directly in his way? No, he steps over it.

How much more is God able to soar above, plunge beneath, and step over the troubles of the earth!

Psalm 36:5

Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reached unto the clouds.
