Great
16 But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
“The Lord is great!” Psalm 40:16
Do you ever take the time to look around and see how amazing
everything actually is, or are you too caught up in trying to see how
great you are or how great you can be? There are really wonderful
things around us, but I would say there is nothing great that we can
physically see. Greatness is something many people say they strive for
in life, but what does it mean to actually be great? The number one
definition describes great as "being unusually or comparatively large in
size or dimensions." If you look a little further down, one definition
says "of extraordinary powers." When you see these definitions, it
should be very clear what is great. If we are striving to be great, we
need to realize we can't get there, and for people to think they are
great is the furthest thing from reality. There is only one who is
Great and that is our Father in Heaven, and He is larger than anything
we could imagine. We can spend time striving for greatness, but know
this, God is Great and we need to rejoice in Him and all He is.
Have a great weekend.
