God of Wonders

Today, I had an eye-opening experience. During the hour and a half wait for my friend, Lance to get home, I got to enjoy some peace and quiet outside of his house. I was watching a little group of ants walk while a huge jet flew over his house. I then realized a cloud shaped in the form of a cross. I sat in awe as the cloud rolled by and three things came to mind. The songs, When The Music Fades and God of Wonder. So I pulled out my phone and began reading from Isaiah 33 and I ran across verse 17 that states,"Your eyes will see the king in his beauty and view a land that stretches afar." I realized at that moment that I try to hard to make life easy for me, and I think that I am at peace and I am really not without God's help. At that moment, I looked at the cloud and it had transformed into a peace-sign. Either I was seeing things, or God is trying to tell me something. I sat there with my phone blaring God of Wonders as I watched my old self fade away with the cloud. What a blessing God is!

Oh what a journey we are about to embark on!

I am sooo pumped up to see what God has in store for us through this revolution. Who knows all the possibilities and oppurtunities God is going to give us as we embark on the journey to memorize scripture and apply it to everyday life. Glory be to God in everything that we do. So lets begin this adventure of a lifetime with a look from scripture. "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you havedone anything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, wit which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." Ephesians 6:13-17
