God is big, we are small.

I have been listening to a lot of music...and the same thread that comes out of a lot of my music is the hugeness of God, and how small and weak we are in comparison. Let me give you a couple examples:

"My strength is almost gone how can I carry on if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls I barely hear You whisper through the rain
'I'm with you'"
~Casting Crowns, Praise You in this Storm

"I'm giving my life to the only One who makes the moon reflect the sun...
I'm giving my life to the only Son who was, and is, and yet to come."
~Chris August, Starry Night

"Indescribable, uncontainable, You place the stars in the sky and You know them by name...
All-Powerful, untameable, awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim,
You are amazing, God!"
~Chris Tomlin, Indescribable

"He is jealous for me, loves like a hurricane and I am a tree,
bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy."
~David Crowder Band, How He Loves

"Savior, He can move the mountains. Our God is mighty to save...
Forever, Author of salvation. He rose and conquered the grave; Jesus conquered the grave!"
~Jeremy Camp/Michael W. Smith/Hillsong United, Mighty to Save

"Would you dare, would you dare to believe that you still have a reason to sing?
'Cause the pain that you been feeling can't compare to the joy thats coming...its just the dark before the morning."
~Josh Wilson, Before the Morning

"I've seen faith that moves the mountains, hope that doesn't ever end, even when the sky is falling.
I've seen miracles just happen, silent prayers get answered, broken hearts become brand new...that's what faith can do."
~Kutless, What Faith can do

"When my world is shaking, Heaven stands.
When my heart is breaking, I never leave Your hands."
~JJ Heller, Your Hands

"How beautiful, the sound of all Your people in love with Something so much greater than themselves!"
~Matt Maher, Shine like the Son

"You alone have done great things, I can't boast of anything.
Mighty one, King of Kings, Jesus!"
~Matt Maher, Great Things

"Even when the rain falls, even when the flood starts rising, even when the storm comes,
 I am washed by the water."
~NeedtoBreathe, Washed by the Water

"Like the wind that moves the leaves
Lord, You move me to my knees
I believe in something way beyond myself."
~Newsboys, Way Beyond Myself

"Above all powers, above all kings, above all nature and all created things,
above all wisdom and all the ways of man,
You were here before the world began."
~Rebecca St. James, Above All

"Breathe, just breathe.
Take the world off your shoulders, and put it on Me."
~Ryan Star, Breathe

"He'll break open the skies to save those who cry out His name.
The One the wind and waves obey is strong enough to save you."
~Tenth Avenue North, Strong Enough to Save

"Could the Maker of the stars hear the sound of my breaking heart?
One life, thats all I am, right now I can barely stand,
if You're everything You say You are, would You come close and hold my heart?"
~Tenth Avenue North, Hold My Heart

Wow. God's pretty big...how does He show you His power?
Peace and grace to you!
