Lost in Wonder
APRIL 20, 2023
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised.
Psalm 145:3
Recommended Reading: Psalm 145
Psalm 145 is a kaleidoscope of God’s attributes—“His greatness” (verse 3), “the glorious splendor of [His] majesty” (verse 5), His “goodness” (verse 7), His graciousness and “compassion” (verse 8), His “power” (verse 11), the “majesty of His kingdom” (verse 12), and His everlasting nature (verse 13). And that’s not all. The 21 verses of Psalm 145 are a virtual tour of God’s unsearchable personality, and when we see Him as He is, we realize we should approach Him with dignity, humility, reverence, fear, and awe.
Too much of our worship is informal, subjective, and devoid of moments of silence and holy reverence. Certainly there’s a warmth and simplicity to worship, but let’s not lose the grandeur of God’s unsearchable greatness.
God is a sovereign King. His unlimited power and His endless authority demand our deepest reverence. How wonderful to be lost in the wonder of His Person and overwhelmed by the splendor of His majesty! That can best happen when we take time for stillness, survey His masterful creation, search His Book, and imagine His heavenly throne. May there always be a “holy, holy, holy” refrain rising from our soul.
Where there is no awe there will be little worship.
