Mere Men, Big God

And he changes the times and the seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings; he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that have understanding;Daniel 2:21

As I sat gazing out my window at 35,000 feet at the cities and countryside below I thought of how great our God is and how He is the one who ultimately rules and reigns. Kings, princes, presidents, tyrants, and dictators may think they are in control but ultimately God is on the throne.  

My heart breaks for those people who don’t believe in God and can’t see anything beyond science or Darwin in creation. God lets mankind go about his work on Earth and intervenes when prayers go up or when He has to. The future is in His hands not yours as much you and  I may like to take credit for it. 

I stand amazed and in awe of His magnificence especially gazing down from my airplane window. God has given mankind the ability to do so much even to build airplanes and drill for petroleum but let us never forget to praise Him and thank Him daily for the ability to breathe and move about. 

PRAYER: Protect my heart and those I love from falsehoods and deception. Keep my heart and those I love pure. Help me stay on the path that leads to Heaven. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
