a feast at midnight

and i believe in reinvention, do you believe that life is holding the clue, take away all the lonely moments, give me full communication with you.

You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same



'From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
creations revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and
You love me the same
You are amazing God'
-'Indescribable' by Chris Tomlin

Listen to this song. If you cant listen. Read the lyrics. Really read them.

we had the most amazing sermon tonight at 20some. chris and justin played the dvd of Louie Giglio speaking on the vastness of God, and the smallness of humanity. he titled his sermon 'significant insignificance'. i made it about 5 minutes into the viewing before the tears started rolling down my cheeks. it was incredible. words cant describe it. it was absolutely, positively, 100 million% exactly what i needed to hear tonight. God did it again, he showed His Awesome magnificence and spoke directly to my heart. i so needed to hear what Louie had gleaned from Christ words in Isaiah. i'm going to be buying the dvd, so all can come and watch it, or borrow it. the words he spoke were so powerful!

he spoke on the significant insignificance of us as mankind, and the absolute vastness, glorious, magnificent hugeness that God is. how He measures the breadth of the universe with his hands, who measures the waters of the universe in the hollows of His hands. he spoke of how God in his indescribable wisdom can count the stars and knows them by name, and that in His infinite vastness He sees each of us, and knows us by name, and loves us more than all of the creations of His making. think of it! The universe is infininte, scienentist speculate that it grows by millions of miles in all directions each nanosecond, and God can measure the universe, which He spoke into existence in the breadth of His hand. out of a billion billion billion stars and a billion billion billion more planets He sees us, a pale blue dot in the outer rims of a minor galaxy on the edge of the milky way, He sees each of us, He knows the number of hairs on your head, He knows YOU, and He loves you, He sent His Son for you, if it had been only you on the planet, Christ would have still come and bore the burden of your sin. He loves you THAT MUCH. He knew you before you were born and He loved you then, just as now.

chris tomlin sings this song and it just captures what Louie meant, listen to it again and really think of what hes saying. now listen to those few lines at the end of the song,
'Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and
You love me the same '
think of it. of all the sin you've committed, of all the guilt, all the times you've turned your face from Him, He was ALWAYS there with you. Always ready to catch you when you fell, because eventually you did or will fall, and He carried you. Not just picked you back up, think of it, the God that spoke light, spoke the universe into existence loves you SO MUCH that He comes and picks you up, and carries you until you are ready and strong enough to stand on your own. He demands nothing more of you then to believe in Him, to love Him, believe that He sent His son, His beloved Son, for YOU. thats it! He is so huge, so vast that He can measure all of the waters in the hollows of His hands, and He knows YOU. out of the 6.5billion people on the planet, the trillion trillion stars in the heavens, out of all of that He knows YOUR name. and He is SO in love with you!i so needed to hear what louie had to say, God spoke so clearly to me tonight. i cried my sorrows from within myself and now i am at rest. God in His beautiful, glorious, infinite love and understanding has given me rest, given me peace so pure and deep, something i needed so desperately, He has filled me with. i am in awe of His power. i'm going to find this sermon and post it, i encourage everyone to listen to it. it changed my life. ellen and i were talking about it after and she was saying its like gloria white (a famous evangelist) said, its like a hug from God. He comes and wraps His infinite arms around you and speaks His love directly to you. you are NEVER alone in Him!
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
