Where do you Stand?

My wife has gone back to work after having our first child and I watch him while she is there. So today as I was watching him I could not help by think of how amazing God is. I also bought a new cd on friday (which does not happen much) by a man named Jeremy Riddle, one of the songs is called Sweetly Broken great song. Towards the end it goes like this "You've called me out of death/ You've called me into life/ And I was under your wrath/ Now through the cross I'm reconciled/ In awe of the cross I must confess/ How wondrous Your redeeming love and/ How great is You're faithfulness."

As we fly through life we forget about what God has done for us through Christ and how He has given us life and life to the full. When we see things maybe our children we are often to busy to see the beauty in their eye and the love in their smile. Too often in life we don't see the beauty, love,peace, that God has placed in our life. As you read this you maybe stress out or even down in the dumps I ask you where are you standing, are standing and looking for theses things from God or are you running through life that you don't even see any of it. As they say stop and smell the coffee, I ask you to stop and see the hand of the God that loves you. I leave you with this verse from Ecc. 5:7 "Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God."
