"GREAT IS THE LORD!"

Psalms 145:1-3                      (ESV)
"1 I will extol you, my GOD and KING, and bless YOUR name forever and ever.
2 Every day I will bless YOU and praise YOUR name forever and ever.
3 "GREAT IS THE LORD", and greatly to be praised, and HIS greatness is unsearchable.



Every now and then I sit in amazement of the world we live in.  The two paragraphs below testify just how grandiose our universe is, and all GOD had to do was SPEAK it into existence!  Read below these two paragraphs from scientists explaining how precise the earth must rotate around the sun for us to survive:

""You might be surprised to know that a spot on the surface of the Earth is moving at 1675 km/h or 465 meters/second. That’s 1,040 miles/hour. Just think, for every second, you’re moving almost half a kilometer through space, and you don’t even feel it.""

""Earth's average orbital speed is about 30 kilometers per second. In other units, that's about 19 miles per second, or 67,000 miles per hour, or 110,000 kilometers per hour (110 million meters per hour).""

To understand that even though I am sitting still right now typing this, yet still I am moving 19 miles per second on a globe that is spinning over 1,000 miles per hour, all without getting out of timing in the slightest is incomprehensible!  Yet, we seem to doubt that GOD is in control of the happenings of our finances, our nation, and world!  How about how GOD makes plants and trees to provide oxygen, which we NEED to survive?  Yet, we accept this unexplainable?!?

"GREAT IS THE LORD" is such an understatement!  The passage above is actually a song written by King David over 3,000 years ago.  GOD says HE "will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known" in Jeremiah 33:3!  Whenever we run into what we see as being a problem, we need to remember that GOD controls the earth on its axis!  HE can certainly handle my small problems, no matter how monumental they appear to me!  My world is rather small compared to the earth spinning at over 1,000 MPH and moving at 67,000 MPH!  Why don't we trust GOD with our lives?  After all, "GREAT IS THE LORD"!!!
