It’s okay to recognize our smallness.
It’s okay to feel insufficient for the task.
It’s okay to come face-to-face with the dwarfishness of our
personal ability to solve this massive problem. Because, it’s when we see our
inability, that we are finally able to see His
ability.
After all, isn’t He
the One who has measured the waters of this earth in the hollow of His hand; meted out heaven with a span;
comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure; weighed the mountains in
scales and the hills in a balance? To Him,
the nations are as a drop in a bucket and are counted as the small dust of the
balance (Isaiah 40:12).
When He heads off
to war, there are none that can stay His
hand (Daniel 4:35).
He sits
as King between the mighty cherubim, above all, over all, and in control of all
– the creator of the heavens and the earth, God of all the kingdoms of this
earth (Isaiah 37:16).
He can
bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, and loose the bands of Orion – He can set the dominion of His ordinances in the earth. He can send forth lightning, number the
clouds, and stay the bottles of heaven (Job 38).
He is the Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6),
The Everlasting God (Isaiah 40:28),
Over all, God blessed for ever (Romans 9:5),
The God of the whole earth (Isaiah 54:5), and
His throne is for
ever and ever (Hebrews 1:8).
He is the Almighty, which is, and which was, and which is to
come (Revelation 1:8),
The Creator of all things (Colossians 1:16),
The Upholder of all things (Hebrews 1:3).
Is there any question? We may be unable to alter this world,
but He can. He is able to rescue. He is
able to change everything.
