O God, my heart is prepared, so is my tongue. I will sing and give praise. Awake, Viol and harp. I will awake early. I will praise thee O Lord among the people, and I will sing unto thee among the nations. For the mercy is great above the heavens, and the truth unto the clouds. Exalt thyself, O God, above the heavens, and let thy glory be upon all the earth. ~Psalm 108: 1-5
Sometimes I feel apathetic, and I hate it. God is so great, and yet sometimes I feel like it's just another Monday.
What I have to force myself to realize is that God is God, and we are not. We don't praise God because he's good to us, we praise him because he is God, worthy of praise just because he Is.
and yet, just for His glory, he created all of the world and all of its beauty. And when humanity fell, he sent his one and only Son to die for our sins. So this being, the creator, who is completely worthy to be worshipped by every creature alive is good to us even though we don't deserve it, and even though we often forget it.
::commence tears of joy at how absolutely and completely awesome God is::
Open the floodgates up
I want to change my mind
I want to be in love
I want the water in my eyes
I want to cry until the end of time
I want to let the rain come down
Tonight
And what little we see of the glory of God here on earth? I cannot fathom what it will be like in heaven.
My eyes can see the colors of Glory. My hands can reach the heavens before me. Where our hearts will beat with joy together, and love will reign forever and ever, Oh my God, I want to be there with you! I want to see you face to face, where being in your arms is the permanent state. I want it like it was back then, I wanna be in Eden.
And I saw a new heaven, and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away, and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city new Jerusalem come down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride trimmed for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven, saying Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be their God with them, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, neither crying, neither shall be anymore pain, for the first things are passed. ~Revelation 21: 1-5
