Firey balls of gas burn in the night sky. The man in the moon rests his eyes. Midnight long since has past. The air still. The sun waiting to trickle down the mountain and into the valley to kiss the land beneath her. The inhabitants of Earth in a deep slumber expectant for the break of dawn.
My brain in contrast with the universe is nothing but a speck. My soul one of millions even billions, yet He longs to be in communion with me. My life nothing but a vapor in the wind yet I live each day in His presence even if it is just for a faint moment in time. My palm sized heart will beat over 3 billion times in my lifetime and I have never once doubted that it will cease. Much like the sun rising in the East we never doubt it’s faithfulness yet we doubt the God of the universe. The creator of the sun, the stars, and our tiny hearts.
I will never comprehend my Father’s goodness nor will I comprehend why He pours it so generously into every void. The faithfulness of my Savior even when I am not faithful shakes me to my core. He placed each layer of skin so perfectly over my muscles, tendons, and bones. He molded my nose and placed every eyelash and freckle strategically in place. He made me fit together seamlessly. He breathed breath inside my lungs knowing I could one day curse Him with the very breath He gave me but He did it anyways. He chose to purse me anyways. He chose to love me endlessly anyways.
How faithful is my creator. How delightful to know He looks at me as blameless and spotless and is proud of His creation. Even in the depths of the valley the sweet Spirit leads me. He still gentle voice is music to my ears. How faithful is He. He has never failed to make the seasons change or skipped a kiss between the ocean and the shore. He has never failed to keep the water from tracing a patten upon Earth’s skin or let the planets fall out of order. He has never failed and never will. His goodness will never fail.
