Simple Amazement!

Joshua 3: 5
"Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."

I wonder this morning, how many people are still amazed at the things of God?
It was not any simple feat, to create the Heavens and the earth in six days, and then rest on day seven.
Does the creation story still amaze the people of God anymore?

The church still looks for ways to excite and amaze it’s people.
Folks who are looking for a new church, the first item on their list of pre-qualifiers, is the music.

Churches for years now, have tried to incite excitement, by how many people they have in their pit orchestra.
We still look to add a dash of Hollywood, so as to amaze the people in attendance.

Isn’t the concept of God, amazing no matter what?
I am still amazed at how much God loves me so, and I don’t need a worship band to remind me of that.

I am overwhelmed, that God still knows me by name.
There have been over 112 billion people, born on the face of the earth in historical times, and the God of the universe still knows Dan Gibson by name.
That amazes me.

Are you still amazed at how much God loves you?
Maybe you need to recall that this morning, as you jump out of bed to start this new day.

Be amazed, that God extends His love to you this morning, and He brings brand new mercies for you, this very day…
