Worship Wednesdays: God of Wonders


We sang this song recently in one of our worship sets and I started to do some deep thinking about that word, 'Wonders'. I mean what is a wonder? Do we even know what that is anymore, in our high-tech gadget filled world where what we see everyday would be considered science fiction or even magic depending on how far back in the past you wanted to go. Certainly during the times of the Biblical narrative such technological advances would have been seen as great wonders indeed.

But, has all this advancement made us oblivious to the even greater wonders that God has created all around us. A wise man once stated that the more we know, the more we realized how little we know. Yet, the world moves on as though it knows all and is no longer impressed by God's wonders.

Wonder - noun - something strange and surprising; a cause of surprise, astonishment, or admiration; miraculous deed or event; remarkable phenomenon.

Really? Is there really anything in this world that fits that description, and if there is when was the last time we stopped and noticed them.

God truly is a God of Wonders. As Christians we need to start acknowledging that with more than just our words, even if we like the song. We need to start acknowledging it with our thoughts and deeds as well.
