God’s Dream: It’s not all about me but yet it needs me for it to be complete
S—There is no one like you, O Lord, and there is no God beside you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
H—David reflects upon his life and all that is happened and he is overwhelmed with what God has done with his life. Perhaps David is even more overwhelmed with the fact that what God has done in his life is a small thing to God. This thing (David’s life and accomplishments) seem supernatural to David and a huge amount of success but yet it is a small thing to God. David is convinced that there is none other like God he serves.
A—If I take time to reflect on the way in which God has moved in my life it is incredible to think about. It blows my mind to sit down and take in all the ways God has moved and used my life to influence those around me. And yet this is a small thing to God. The very thing that seems to be a world changer in my own mind is a small potatoes to this God that specializes in transformation. Perhaps God is pointing me to see that by itself, my accomplishments are nothing to get excited about but when I connect my accomplishments with others I can begin to see God’s outlook and desires. Perhaps one of the reasons God gave birth to the church is to bring our lives/stories together so we could see God’s perspective; God’s big picture; God’s size dream for our lives.
P—God I pray that you would help me to see that your work in my life is nothing but a small piece to the puzzle and yet it is an important piece to the puzzle. Help me to see that when I join your work in my life with those around me a get a glimpse at the massive work you are doing through your people. For there is none like you and only you are able to do accomplish these unthinkable achievements in my life. Thanks for inviting me to be a piece in the puzzle and may I never forget that I am only a piece; I am not the puzzle and at the same time the puzzle is not complete with out me. Amen.
Peace from Pastor P
