Day 149: Psalm 32:6

"His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks." ~Psalm 32:6, MSG


Hear, hear! I wish to describe the God we serve with a little bit of ancient poetry. My God's purpose is titanic. He wants to rescue all of humanity from our own foolishness. My God's wisdom, it's vaster than the ocean, as though you could really comprehend that!

'But wait, if that's how big my God is, why would He want to pay attention to little old me?' Well, the psalmist here seems to understand that, at least a little. We can't comprehend God's enormity, but we know for a certain fact that nothing escapes God's attention - He's taking care of ALL of the details. There are no cracks for a man, or a mouse to slip through. Nothing slips past God.

Including your fears.

God knows and sees that you're afraid, and He wants you to know that He cares, and that He wants to help you. All you have to do is believe that, and choose to know that He's got the whole world in His hands, and that He wants to make you into the best person you can possibly be. I know I say that a lot (goodness, am I repetitive!) but I only say it because it's what I know to be true. Don't let your fears stop you from following Him and jumping out of your boundaries. He's got you, in all of His greatness!
