God’s Grand Design

God’s Grand Design Included You

Consider this question:

What do you have in common with the moon and the stars?

The answer to that is the most fantastic news imaginable – God’s Grand Design . . . included you and me.

To think that our Creator God, who fashioned the sun, the moon and the stars, trillions of galaxies, the animals – and in every sense – all of creation, would care about us!

Mind-blowing and humbling to say the least.

A thank you to Deborah Ann Belka for writing the following poem that brilliantly captures the essence of God’s gift.

Every day that we have breath in our bodies, we have reason to praise the One who gave us life.


I Stand In Awe

Father, when I think of the things,
with Your fingers You have done
I stand in complete awe . . .
over each and every one.

When I ponder the heavens,
the vastness of the space above
I stand in total awe . . .
by the magnitude of Your love.

When I peer into the sky,
gaze upon the stars and moon
I stand in awaiting awe . . .
Jesus will come again soon.

When I reflect on the universe,
how endless it seems to be
I am in utter awe . . .
You even thought to create me.

Oh, Father when I consider,
all the things You have done
I stand in everlasting awe . . .
for the gift of Your Son!

Psalm 8:3-4

“When I consider thy heavens,
the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which thou hast ordained;

What is man, that thou art
mindful of him?
and the son of man,
that thou visitest him?”
