I first saw this video at my church and then again as my small group began the Crazy Love book. Both times it stirred something in me. At first it was amazement then quickly turned into an overwhelming feeling and certainty that I AM NOTHING! My life is smaller than the smallest speck on a grain of sand.............smaller than that. AND I make mistakes all the time and forget to honor Him. YET, the GOD of this vast universe cares what I do and wants to love me?! AND believes that I (a speck) can do great things. OK. That is Crazy. But when I choose to believe that and ask Him to show me, He DOES and that is just amazing to me. Its my testimony of how great He is. I wouldn't believe it any other way. My small mind can't grasp it.
So, when it comes to our stuff and problems and this world...............this is how I see it. When the video takes you way out in outer space.......that is eternity and that is all the matters. What you can no longer see is the earth and all that stuff. You can't see yourself, your a speck BUT God longs to take you out into eternity some day.
SO, each day, take yourself to that place of being in AWE of him and don't get caught up in worldly things. Honor Him first above all. I will try my best!
Treasures in Heaven
19"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.22"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. 23But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
24"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
