GOD in minute detail

Formed at God's command... what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
                                                                                             Hebrews 11:3

When we look up into the star-filled sky, we cannot help wondering at the greatness of creation by Almighty God. Thinking about stars, planets, and galaxies leads us to think about worlds that escape our perception and comprehension.

 I think about the universe of atoms and cells, particles and tiny living things —— many of which are not seen by the naked eye, things that are part of the animal kingdom, the plant kingdom, and the mineral kingdom.

 God created all this, and every bit of it is important, whether it's big or small. Everything is important because the big things are made up of smaller things: the great sea is formed by small particles of water, the vast desert is formed by tiny particles of sand.


God is concerned with the eternity of all mankind and even the seconds of my own life. God cares about the great happenings in the world, and he cares about my private problems and daily difficulties as well.


We might think we shouldn't bother God with our petty problems and daily plans—— or perhaps we even think we don't need to—— because God is the great God who has planned life itself and all eternity. But God also cares about the small details of our lives (Matthew 10:29-31).  To God, each of us is a very distinct and special person. So let's speak to him!
