Father, I truly believe that You created the heavens and the earth. And that everything in it belongs to You.
It especially blows my mind when I’m at a stoplight.
I sit there in my car and marvel that no matter where I am, You are there with me.
And You have a specific awareness of who I am, where I am going, what I am thinking, the condition of my heart, spirit, and all that concerns me. You even know the number of hairs on my head.
Then I look up and realize You are also with every other person there at that intersection – knowing who they are, where they are going, what is happening in their lives, the condition of their hearts and their spirits.
It’s Your quality of omnipresence.
Not only there at my intersection, but also everyone at every intersection up the road, and in my town. Beyond that, You are present with every person at every intersection in other towns, and in other states, in every country, every hemisphere, around the entire world! And that’s just people in their cars!
There are billions of people on this planet, and at any given moment, You are aware of each of them, and are present with them. Each one, every second of every day! It is so far beyond my ability to comprehend, it blows my mind!
Father, I love that You are omnipresent. When I think of Your ability to be everywhere at the same time, I get a general sense of the great power You have, and think, “Of course, God is everywhere.”
But when I can actually picture specifics, like the number of people at my intersection, cars I can see, faces I can discern, and begin to multiply that by other familiar intersections, other towns; it quickly grows from proportions that I can quantify as impressive to numbers that are unimaginably mind-boggling.
And this is only one of Your amazing, immeasurable characteristics! No wonder Jesus said to his disciples, “with God all things are possible.”
“You are the King of glory. You are strong and mighty. You are mighty in battle. You are the Lord God Almighty.” And I am in awe of You.
Thank You for drawing near to me. Thank You that in Your power, You care for and love each one of Your creations.
I praise You that in Your unfathomable greatness reaching across the galaxy, You are a personal Father who leans down know me intimately. I am amazed by You.
