The most amazing thing of all is how much God
cares about us – each and every one of us.
.
Amidst
the splendor of the universe, a tiny speck within the vast galaxies filled with
billions and billions of stars. Yet He loves us so. Deeply. Intimately. Unreservedly.
Take a look at the stars. Imagine the vastness of the world we live in. The
power, authority and might of our God. This very God loves you so much and
sacrificed His beloved Son for you that you may once again be embraced by Him.
Take time to wonder at a spectacular world signed with the signature of the
Master Creator. And then allow our heart to be lifted high in praise and prayer
to the God who made everything wonderful.

‘I will praise you, O Lord, with all my heart; I will tell
of all your wonders. I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to
your name, O Most High.’ - (Psalm 9:1)
Have you ever marvelled at God’s handiwork?
Have you ever stood in awe in the presence of our loving
Father?
Despite all His greatness.
Despite all the wonders of His hands.
Perhaps the most amazing thing of all is how much He cares
about us – each and every one of us.
Amidst the splendour of the universe, a tiny speck within
the vast galaxies filled with billions and billions of stars.
Yet He loves us so. Deeply. Intimately. Unreservedly.
Have you ever wondered why?
Perhaps we’d never fully understand the unfathomable
depths of God’s love for us.
But every once in a while, take a look at the stars.
Imagine the vastness of the world we live in. The power,
authority and might of our God.
What love!
What a miracle!
What a wonder!
Be Greatly Blessed!
Prayer:
Father, God of all creation, all beauty and everything
marvellous, I’m filled with wonder and awe as I come to you today.
I want to stop and notice the wonder of all you have
created.
Draw my attention to wondrous things.
May I be found with a heart full of awe and praise.
Most of all, thank you once again for loving me.
Although I may never fully understand the depths of your
love for me, I yearn to know it more and more.
Help me to spread your wonders and love to more and more
people.
In Jesus’ Mighty Name,
AMEN!
Additional Thoughts:
Wonder is the forerunner of prayer.
With stillness and awe at the handiwork of God amongst
creation, we position our hearts for prayerfulness and praise.
Wonder brings us up short, as it redirects our attention
to things which our beyond our ability to comprehend.
Wonder comes upon us as we experience the mystery of God
in the world.
If in doubt, be still long enough to admire the changing
hues of the setting sun or the appearance of the starry hosts as He calls them
out one by one.
Watch with fascination and admiration a tiny spider
spinning its intricately fine web or marvel at the unusual dance of courting
flamingos.
The whole world is charged with the grandeur and mystery
of God.
Take time to wonder at a spectacular world signed with the
signature of the Master Creator.
In a climate of hurry and haste, people have almost lost
the ability to wonder.
It has to be rediscovered.
It has to be rekindled, nurtured and given opportunity to
grow and flourish.
The path of wonder is the way of simplicity and
childlikeness.
Remember when our own backyard seemed big and full of new
places to discover?
We must rediscover the child hiding in each of us, waiting
to come out and play.
We must find within our own heart the capacity for
innocent, childlike wonder; a simple innocence that cannot be stolen by the
climate of our times.
Stillness draws out the wonder in each of us.
Stop frequently.
Listen often.
Look with attention at the beauty before us.
Wonder.
And then allow our heart to be lifted high in praise and prayer
to the God who made everything wonderful.
