Noisy Nature
"'Would you discredit my justice?...Do you have an arm like God's, and can your voice thunder like his'" (Job 40:8-9)?
Scripture Focus: Psalm 19:1-11
June 25, 2007, was an exciting day for NASA and the crew of the shuttle, Atlantis, as my friend recounted. “The sky was beautifully clear, so I could witness Atlantis flying right over. As soon as I heard the sonic booms, I knew exactly where to look in the sky. A thin white trail represented the shuttle's change from a place with no atmosphere to Earth's atmosphere.”
There's something awesome about the power of those twin sonic booms. It makes me wonder what it must have been like when God's voice spread across the expanse of space and spoke the universe into being. A sonic boom is impossible to ignore. The force driving it causes the sound barrier to be broken and elicits an unmistakable noise.
God's voice is unmistakable. He calls to us, reminding us that He is truly awesome. We may not always understand what He is doing or why. There are times when the beauty and perfection of God's plan for our lives is not understandable until it has been completed in us. In all things, He is marvelous and worthy to be praised.
Insight: What changes in your life are hard? Do you enjoy hearing God's voice? What evidence of God's power have you seen?
