"And the Lord God of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name."
Amos 9:5-6
I like the line here about building his stories in the heaven. :) What is brings to mind for me is the same image I get when I read the creation story. God is someone who can speak, and it happens. He builds a story and it literally takes shape and comes to life. Maybe we get too used to thinking of him as a normal person and don't retain that awe that we should have knowing how much more than that he is.
Let's remember that the Lord tells stories that really happen. :) That would be a cool movie, but it's actually our reality that we get to live in. :) Today, let's pray with that in mind and try to understand the greatness of God, and how much he loves us that he is trying to help us and teach us how to be like him. :)
