Awesome God!

I give you praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. – Luke 10:21 (NAB)
No tickets purchased. No crowds. Just a simple pulling over alongside the road to look expectantly at the sky.
Have we become jaded over the years or do we take time, with childlike wonder, to "gaze heavenward" and await the wonders God is about to perform in our lives?
Prayer
God of wonder, help me to live in expectation of Your awesome works. Let me be childlike with belief. When You look down upon me, I pray you will find me watching expectantly for Your spectacular surprises.
Quote
Keep your life in its constant contact with God that his surprising power may break out on the right hand and on the left. Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for God to come in as he likes. // Oswald Chambers
Thought
When focusing merely on ourselves or the situations that surround us, we can miss what God is doing in the heavenly realm.

I loved how you captured the moment. And a very helpful reminder to look upwards to our Creator rather than focus on circumstances.
Lovely post.
It reminds me of the time that my granddaughter and I were traveling in the car and saw a solitary cloud with a rainbow in it. We call it our rainbow cloud!
