Today, big things are happening for us on our little part of Earth. Yet, I pray that we will let these few pictures and scriptures below help us keep things in perspective. I am so thankful that our "Heavenly Daddy" is in control!
.Isaiah 33:22
"For the LORD is our Judge,
The LORD is our Lawgiver,
The LORD is our King;
He will save us." (Savior of the World)

THE DARKEST REGIONS OF THE PHOTO ABOVE.

In spite of our size in the grand scheme of things, GOD says, that
- He made us...
- He gave us breath and spirit...
- He has called us...
- He will hold our hand...
- He will watch over us...
- He has given us a job to do...
- He asks us to sing His praises...
.
Isaiah 42:5-10
.
5 Thus says God the LORD,
Who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread out the earth and its offspring,
Who gives breath to the people on it,
And spirit to those who walk in it,
6 "I am the LORD,
I have called you in righteousness,
I will also hold you by the hand and watch over you,
And I will appoint you as a covenant to the people,
As a light to the nations,
7 To open blind eyes,
To bring out prisoners from the dungeon,
And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.
8 "I am the LORD, that is My name;
I will not give My glory to another,
Nor My praise to graven images.
9 "Behold, the former things have come to pass,
Now I declare new things;
Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you."
10 Sing to the LORD a new song,
Sing His praise from the end of the earth!"
.
.
18 For thus says the LORD, who created the heavens
(He is the God who formed the earth and made it,
He established it and did not create it a waste place,
But formed it to be inhabited),
"I am the LORD, and there is none else...
...And there is no other God besides Me,
A righteous God and a Savior;
There is none except Me.
22 "Turn to Me, and be saved,
all the ends of the earth;For I am God,
and there is no other.
23 "I have sworn by Myself,
The word has gone forth
from My mouth in righteousness
And will not turn back,
That to Me every knee will bow,
every tongue will swear allegiance.
24 "They will say of Me,
'Only in the LORD are righteousness and strength.' "
.

Isaiah 33:22
.
"For the LORD is our Judge,
The LORD is our Lawgiver,
The LORD is our King;
He will save us." (Savior of the World)

Jeremiah 17:5
.
"Thus says the LORD,
'Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes flesh his strength,
And whose heart turns away from the LORD."

Dear GOD,
You can do anything! You rule over planets! You rule over nations! You rule over the changes of the seasons! We see Your hand all around us. We're so focused on the condition of our world and the changes that need to take place. Please help those changes start with me and each person who reads this.
