Overwhelmed by God's Glory

When I see the glory of creation, how can I not believe in God? How can I not be overwhelmed by his beauty, his majesty, by the works of his hands that proclaim his power? The above photo is taken yesterday (published by CBC news), and displays the northern lights that blessed Canada due to solar plasma hitting our atmosphere. Amazing, isn't it?

I look at that photo, and I am in awe of the way God blesses us every day if we just open our eyes to see his handiwork. Romans 1:20 states "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse." God, you are truly amazing! I praise you for your amazing beauty, your incomparably great power! Open my eyes to see YOU everywhere I look.


By now, I am guessing that you have heard the song "Overwhelmed" by Big Daddy Weave, but if you haven't, turn out the lights, close your eyes, and listen to the lyrics of this song:

I see the work of Your Hands

Galaxies spin in a Heavenly dance oh God

All that You are is so overwhelming

I hear the sound of Your Voice

All at once it's a gentle and thundering noise oh God

All that You are is so overwhelming

I delight myself in You

Captivated by Your beauty

I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed by You

God, I run into Your arms

Unashamed because of mercy

I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed by You

I know the power of Your Cross

Forgiven and free forever You'll be my God

All that You've done is so overwhelming

I delight myself in You

In the Glory of Your Presence

I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed by You

God, I run into Your arms

Unashamed because of mercy

I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed by You

You are Beautiful, You are Beautiful

Oh God, there is no one more Beautiful

You are Beautiful, God you are the most Beautiful

You are Wonderful, You are Wonderful

Oh God, there is no one more Wonderful

You are Wonderful, God You are the most Wonderful

You are Glorious, You are Glorious

Oh God, there is no one more Glorious

You are Glorious, God you are the most Glorious
