Sheer Brilliance

…His glory covered the heavens and his praise filled the earth.  His splendor was like the sunrise:  rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden. (Habakkuk 3:3-4)

I have lived through almost 11,000 sunrises and sunsets.  That’s pretty incredible!  I don’t know how old you are or where God has you right now, but take a moment to think about how many sunrises and sunsets you’ve lived through.  I’m not talking about the ones you’ve been able to see, I’m talking about the ones you’ve lived through.  I have been alive for almost 11,000.

Last week, I started a “Celebration of Life” series.  I will be turning 30 in June and have been looking back through my time on this earth.  God has been so good to me!  I’m not saying that life has always been good, but I am saying God has been good!  Life has been hard at times!  In fact, it’s been down right difficult, but God has been extremely faithful!  That is the one thing that I want to share with you throughout my series on the “Celebration of Life.”  God will always be faithful!  He will not fail us!
