What a God
July 29, 2025
thoughts while and after listening to “What a God” by SEU Worship
“If the highest place I reach is at your feet, then I’ve done it all.
If the best thing that I see is your glory, then I’ve seen it all.
Your love, it saved my life. Forever satisfied. God you are my everything.”
“Angels bow before him.
Heaven and Earth adore him.
What a God, what a God.”
What. A. God. Father, Son, Holy Spirit. The God who has saved my life and has secured the eternity of life I have after this one. Angels bow before him. Heaven and Earth adore him! The God who has created the cosmos and the inner workings of my cellular patterns. Who commands the ocean waters to continuously wave, the sun and moon to interchangeably rise and set, our breath to fill our lungs, our brains to wire and fire correctly to our bodies, who calls darkness to flee, spirits to be cast down, temptation to be of no power for overtaking action.
“All I have needed thy hand hath provided.”
ALL I have needed. Those who come to you lack no good thing. Good by your definition, a greater good. Because you care enough about us to call us to greater things. Greater than this world. More.
Who am I to question this God? To have doubts about what this God, my heavenly, divine, true, powerful, abundantly-life-giving Father, can do? Who am I but a creation of the Creator, graced with love and mercy by his blood, called to more. More life, more action, greater purpose.
My mind cannot fathom the inner workings of his creation; quantum mechanics and perception of space, time, and eternity in their fullness. The deepness of the core of the Earth, the vastness of the cosmos. Even if I have the basic knowledge of these things, I do not have true understanding, and I definitiely do not have the capacity of wisdom and insight to make decisions with these things being taken into account. God does. He takes everything, space and time and divinity, into account when it comes to me and you. Me and you. Our lives. The intentionality of crossing paths with each and every person you meet, or do not meet.
It’s truly unfathomable. And there is a reason for that.
We are capable of so much. We are also called to trust in the One who is capable of infinitely more. So, as we live this life, let us take on the spirit of humility and meekness, trust and understanding, if things are not working “in our favor”. But the thing is, it’s not about us. Things are working in God’s favor. And we are graced with the opportunity to be a part of this glorious, triumphant story.
How cool is that.
Jesus, we trust you.
Friday, August 8 — reading/studying the sovereignty of God, and he led me here. Figured it was fitting to add to this writing:
Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength.
Even youths shall faint and be weary,
and young men shall fall exhausted;
but they that wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:28-31 ESV
