A Little Reminder of Just How Small We Are...

















This is a photo taken from the ISS Expedition earlier today by astronaut, Soichi Noguchi. What an incredible shot of the earth at sunset with the planet Venus in the background. It is a great reminder of how small we really are... and how BIG our God is. The words of an obscure old song come to mind. It is actually a song that I am including on a "hymns" project that I am in the process of recording (and hoping to release sometime soon). The song is called "How Big Is God". Here is the first verse and chorus of that song:

Verse 1:
Though men may strife to go beyond the reach of space

To go beyond the distant shimmering stars
This world's a room so small within my Master's house
The open sky... but a portion of his yard

Chorus:
How big is God... How big and wide his vast domain

To try to tell... these lips can only start
He's big enough to rule this mighty universe
Yet small enough to live within my heart

"We are worshiping an unrivaled, uncontested God of all kind of might and power and glory and awe! There is none like Him, anywhere in all of creation!” - Louie Giglio
