Everything else is less than God

Every day we're reading or listening to part of the Bible together and sharing thoughts with you. Today it’s Becky Evans:

What did I like about today’s passage?

The perspective. I love the way it reframes life as it really is, not how I so often see it. God is God. Everything else is less than Him. God came before all the stuff in life and he has the ultimate authority. I don’t need to be afraid; I just need to look to God and remember who He is and give him the worship He deserves.

What did it show me about Father God, Jesus or the Holy Spirit?

The massiveness of Father God. He is over all things, majestic, enthroned, glorious, strong and mighty yet gentle and kind, listening when we speak to him and rescuing us. God takes the mess and makes it good when we bring it to him, sometimes we may have to wait, but God will come through because he loves us.

What am I going to do differently as a result?

Ask the Holy Spirit to keep my perspective on life accurate. I want to lift my eyes up above the noise of life and look to the one who holds it all together. Trust more, worry less.

Who am I going to share this with?

Specifically, when I meet or see someone who has a need, I will remember that my Father is the creator of the universe and He is and has what they need.

Generally, as I focus on who God is, He will give me His peace that passes understanding and this will overflow onto the people around me.
