Our Amazing God

Today as I am looking out the window seeing so many different trees, leaves and flowers with none of them being alike I am amazed at what an awesome God we have. My thought continues in that direction thinking about all the amazing facts about our God. Like He knows every hair on our head yours, mine and every person that has ever been born. The sand on the beaches, the stars in the sky, and created our bodies to function properly. As you know I could go on and on, but I think you understand how 'Amazing our God is.'
 I have a hard time visualizing that. Not only that He is here with me right now and is over in Iran, Iraq, and Egypt throughout the whole world. Dosen't that just amaze you that we serve such a Mighty God. Besides knowing everything about each human, He also knows the sands on the beaches. We serve an Awesome God! So why is it that when we feel depressed or down, hopeless, unloved?  Why do we not go to That Almighty God.  We seem to go to other things that are close and we think maybe is an easy fix. There are consequences to take that type of action when God requires so little just that we would believe in Him. Most people are running from God instead of to Him. Why? Because they fear Him? There is nothing to fear IF you are seeking God He will be there it is, you and I who need to accept Him. He is waiting for us not with an iron hand but with a scare filled body and hands.  He ultimately gave His life for us. After giving His life three days later, He rose from the grave that gives us complete freedom in Him and the opportunity to see Him in Heaven and remain there with Him for an eternity.
I can look back, see Gods action in my life and the lives of my children, grandchildren, and hope to continue to see that faith and action continue to grow.  God has a plan and a purpose for each one of us and He asks, that we just read His word and follow His guidelines to pray and seek His plans for us.  God only sees the best in us He looks at what is in our heart, Lord I pray that I could look at the people I love that are in my life as well as the dirty lonely person on the street and the person struggling with addictions and depression or confusion. In addition, look at them with Your eyes Father God.
Jeremiah 29:11-13
I know what I am doing. I have it all planned out--plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. "When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I'll listen. When you come looking for me, you will find me. "Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else. I will be there."
