Amazing

I want to talk to you about being amazed in the world today. It seems to be a hard thing to do now in this world with a pandemic that is limiting the things we can do. I am amazed at how we seem to go on with our lives even though we have been limited with what we can do.

Everything has changed so much. We can’t just go for a drive and stop at someone’s house without making sure we are allowed to. We can’t go shopping without taking precautions. We can’t go out for a relaxing evening with friends, go to restaurants, travel, take a bus or taxi, or even go to church, the same way we used to.

That one that hurts our hearts the most, we can’t see our family like we used to. This is having a great impact on every family; everyone needs that special contact with their family to keep going. You miss out on seeing all the milestones and special events. Any family function whether a wedding, birthday, graduation, music recital or even a funeral are not being attended the same way. It just doesn’t seem fair!

I believe the song I Stand Amazed is something we all need to hear. It tells us that God will always be there for us not matter what, this pandemic is NO MATCH FOR HIM.
The chorus goes:
How Marvelous! How Wonderful!

And my song shall ever be:

How Marvelous! How Wonderful!

Is my Saviour’s Love for me!

This song reminds me that we should be amazed because God loves us so much. He will help us through every situation we might be going through - even a pandemic! This chorus is something we all need to hear to help us carry on. God Loves us so much and He will always want the best for us. I am so happy that God wants me to be a part of His life and that HE wants to be a part of mine!

How much more AMAZING can it be that that!
