OMALFTBAWG (Oh My Awesome, Loving, Forgiving, Trustworthy, Beautiful, All-knowing, Wonderful God

     Ahhhhh! That's all I can do to explain my Sunday morning. It was filled with moving worship as well as a ballin sermon. As we praised His name, I looked around the room and all I could see were vulnerable beings giving their all to God...not a care of who is watching them dance around, not a worry about if a way of worship is acceptable, just truly being open to whatever God wants to let them know. As tears of over-powering love filled my eyes, the sermon began. "Hello My Name is God" has been the subject for a couple weeks now, and we have learned the several names that are truly endless that describe God. It was so evident that the words spoken by Pastor Dave were hitting everyone to heart because of the sound in the room. It was silent yet loud with the spirit of the Lord within everyone. No eyes were blinking away. "The way we perceive God is what He is for us." What a wonderful quote. If you view our Lord as nurturing, then He will nurture you. If you view Him as forgiving, then He will forgive you. If you view Him as loving, then He will love you. He is so many wonderful characteristics that our brains can't comprehend because no human on the earth will ever be as beautiful or as powerful as our God. What gets me the most is that there are people out there who don't see this. They don't see the love. They are blind to His beauty. It's so encouraging however to know this because it gives me more of a reason to show the world our glorifying God. Our job is to be serving. It's not about us once we are wrapped in the loving arms of Jehovah, it's about the unknowing people who need our guidance to find God. We live to serve. So let's serve :)
