Holiness & Wonder

Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord Almighty

...It is singing in my head when I wake up and throughout the day- even now at 2 am- for weeks the Holiness of God has been on my heart and at the front of my thoughts...the Lord and my "condition" in light of the Holy God who calls me His own.

I want to live in constant wonder of the Lord God Most High. How can one walk in the Life given through the Resurrection without a constant sense of awe?

When a child is caught up in the awesomeness of an enormous ancient oak tree with its leaves towering into the sky and its enormous trunk anchoring it to the earth- he walks around it- head back- face to the sky- unable to take his eyes off of the wonder of it all.

The child is caught in such amazement of what he beholds, that even when he trips on a limb fallen to the ground, he never loses his gaze even for an instant.

I want to be that child. Never taking my eyes of of you, Lord!
