Behold our God


1)Who has held the oceans in his hands?
Who has numbered every grain of sand?
Kings and nations tremble at his voice
All creation rises to rejoice
Behold our God, seated on his throne
Come, let us adore him
Behold our king, nothing can compare
Come, let us adore him
2)Who has given counsel to the Lord?
Who can question any of his words?
Who can teach the one who knows all things?
Who can fathom all his wondrous deeds?
3)Who has felt the nails upon his hands?
Bearing all the guilt of sinful man
God eternal, humbled to the grave
Jesus, Savior, risen now to reign

I have been replaying this song over and over again on my phone the past couple of weeks. The second verse of that song has really convicted my heart cause its so me all over. I sometimes forget myself and say to God "Jesus, I know you are working this out for my good, but how about I give you some advice here." or "Jesus, didn't you know that you could have done this differently, and to be honest, you did this part of the puzzle all wrong." 
When I say these things, do you know what I am forgetting? I am forgetting that this same Jesus who is putting together my puzzle is the same Jesus that had nails pounded into his body by cruel men. This same Jesus took my cloak of guilt and shame that I should be wearing, and placed it on himself so I could come before God's throne forgiven and set free. This same Jesus was humbled by being put into a grave. Yet he didn't stay in the grave, but rose triumphantly from the grave so I could be washed and sanctified!!!! 

Do you ever question God? Do you ever think you know better? Well, what better time than Easter time to remember what God has done for us! And when you have remembered what he has done for you, then ask yourself if you really are in a position to question the Almighty and All-powerful Jesus.
