Awe

One of the great debates lately is whether scripture is relevant. Does God still have something to say? Or is God still relevant?

I have a question that might help us - What is awe? What inspires, shocks, gives greater meaning, knocks us off our feet, grabs us, throws us into the sacred?

The experience of the shepherds in the fields...awe

God speaking life into existance...awe

David taking on a giant...awe

Paul giving thanks from a jail cell...awe

A sunrise, a sunset, a quiet moment, a prayer, a moment of peace, a hug...awe

What is your moment of awe? God is the originator of all this. Looking back in your life, when you see the amazing above the mundane, there God is.
