"By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth" - Psalm 33 V6

"Thus says God the Lord, who created the heavens and stretched them out, Who spread forth the earth and what comes from it, Who gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to those who walk on it." - Isaiah 42 V5

Everything we see and also the things we do not see are created by God and nothing came into existence on its own. Our God, He gives breath to every living being and He created even the tiniest cell that we know of. Come, let us worship our great and awesome God with all our might and praise Him for His wonderful works. Praise God!

"But now, O Lord, You are our Father; We are the clay and You are the potter; And all we are the work of Your hand." - Isaiah 64 V8

"and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants." - Luke 15 V19

After wasting away all his father's wealth on worthless living, the prodigal son soon realizes that the servants at his father's house have more to eat than what he has, and he makes a decision to return to his father and serve his father like one of his father's servant. We were all once like the prodigal son and we had to make our personal decision to reconcile with our Father in heaven through Jesus Christ our Lord. Sooner or later every person has to make a choice and accept God's love through His Son Jesus Christ or reject His love. It is better to say to our Father in heaven "Make me" than to say "Give me". Blessed are those who inherit the kingdom of God! Let Him be our potter and we be His clay, according to His will.

"Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all you who hope in the Lord." - Psalm 31 V24

"I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry." - Psalm 40 V1

We all expect our prayers to be answered right away and our Lord answers our prayers in His time. Sometimes it may be immediately and other times it may take a while and also few times we may get an answer to our prayers but not the way we expect it to be. Those who wait patiently and hope in the Lord shall renew their strength and God shall never forsake those who trust in Him. We may have a narrow perspective of things we seek but God sees everything and from every direction and He knows what is best and when it will be best. Be of good courage, keep up your faith and continue to hope in the Lord. He will surely answer our prayers in His time.

"Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other." - Genesis 13 V11

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." - Matthew 6 V21

Things of this world may look attractive and entice our heart but it is a short lived joy. When Abraham and Lot separated, Lot made a choice and chose the land which looked greener and prosperous and we all know the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah. The choices we make reveals the desires of our heart and unless we seek the will of God, our choices can very well meet the same fate as Lot's. Let us think and act from a heavenly perspective and glory on things that are yet to come and the things that will live on for eternity.
