In His Temple All Cry, "Glory!"

Readings:
Psalm 29
Ephesians 3:1-13

Focus:
Psalm 29:3,9b: "The voice of the Lord echoes over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the Lord thunders over the mighty waters...and in his temple all cry, 'Glory!'"

Sometimes it is good to remember the greatness of God. He is not only our tender companion. He is not merely our comforter. His role is not only to sustain us.

God is also the one who created the universe. His power is beyond our comprehension. In fact, it is amazing that he wants us to talk with him in prayer. He is the one who created volcanoes to erupt, who created storms that form into blizzards. He is the one who created stars that flare into supernovas. He is the one who created comets and black holes. If we were to see one of the angels crying "Glory!" around him, we would fall down in utter fear.

We must not disobey such a God! But this is a God whose ability to deliver us we can trust. He is utterly able to do what he promises. We too can cry, "Glory!"
