I have mentioned to you before about the photography group that I am a part of. This group has members from all over the world, and I have been truly amazed at some of the images that are submitted everyday. I have one friend that recently submitted some images of the moon. I was so amazing because I could actually see the craters on the surface of the moon. I feel overwhelmed and so blessed to see such awesomeness, because it reminds me of how great and wonderful our God is!
Isaiah 66:2 (AMP)
“For all these things My hand has made, and so all these things have come into being [by and for Me], says the Lord. But this is the man to whom I will look and have regard: he who is humble and of a broken or wounded spirit, and who trembles at My word and reveres My commands.”
As God in Heaven proclaims what He did with the work of His hands He goes on to say, “but here is where I look…” I think about how we are amazed by what we see in creation, yet God is telling us what He is looking to see! After all the beauty and wonder of His creation He is still looking? I love this because it is reminding us that God’s eyes are moving to and fro watching for the one that will ALWAYS put Him and His Word first and reverently respond to what He says. He is looking for those that even when they mess up, they admit they are wrong and receive His forgiveness. He is watching for the man and woman that desires to be humble and respect His Word above their own opinions and thoughts. He is watching you and your heart.
Let us be reminded today that His eyes are looking and watching for the one who will listen and hear what He is speaking. Every time you marvel about something about His beautiful creation and you exclaim praise, just think about what His eyes are looking for! Know that He is waiting and watching for someone that He can use for His purposes. Think about it…He made it all and in all it’s grand beauty He is still watching for those of a humble and contrite spirit. I encourage you today to think about how He desires to use you as you purpose to remain humble and reverent to His Word.
