Thou Art Very Great! (10/13-15)

Psalm 104:1 KJV, “Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou art clothes with honor and majesty.”

Psalm 104:1-35 GOD, THOU ART VERY GREAT. This psalm is a hymn about God’s creation of all things and His providence care over all His works. It emphasizes His involvement with all He has made, for He dwells in the world and support it.

I brought this up as to why I am writing this Manna. Do you ever felt like that God doesn’t seem to understand our situation enough to get the healing business done once and for all? We become impatient because we are seeing other people getting their healings and we don’t. Then why isn’t God getting down to His business of healing according to all the Scripture as He has promised FOR US? I want to share with you what I learn.

When I read the whole chapter of 104 which the Palmist, David wrote about God, the creator of the earth, this made me realize that God knows what He is doing with us. When God created the heavens and the earth, He did not abandon the world to run on its own. He continues to be involved in the lives of His people and the care of His creation.

Through it all, God is drawing us close to the very heart of God. Have you ever seen a mother who held the baby close to her that precious moment? Have you ever seen a baby’s face when the father’s eyes gazed upon the baby with tremendous love? When the father’s eyes is fixed in a steady intent look upon his baby, did you know that a baby’s voice ‘coo’?

When a baby, ‘coo,’ it is a language that the baby could respond to the feeling of father’s love. The word, coo means to make the low soft cry of a dove or pigeon or a similar sound; to talk fondly or lovingly. When the baby coo, the baby is feeling the love radiant from a person holding him. I might interpret a ‘coo’ from a baby that is to say that his dad is very great in loving him.

David, the Psalmist felt like that. David responded to God in Psalm 104 because David felt God’s great love for him from Psalm 103. David was sort of like a baby ‘coo’ to His creator. David became aware of His creator and a sense of feeling that God is very great. So David found words to write his awareness of God’s loving care (in a very details) for the world He has created.

You might asked me, “How do you know when the baby “coo” since you are deaf?” I didn’t! It is through the captioning of movies that gave the paraphrase [coo] from a baby, from a dove, or from a pigeon the sounds I don’t hear. Throughout the times, I have been impressed that even a baby could responded by a “coo” when held so closely.

I discover that God just simply wants us to draw closer to Him and we visualize ourselves like a baby into the very arms of God until we are able to say, “coo.” So instead of demanding why God isn’t answering prayers for some of us, our Heavenly Father simply wants to look upon us with enjoyment as we learn how to enjoy and savor Him. When we touch the very heart of God, His healing will easily flows into our broken bodies.

So let us trust our Creator who knows what He is doing today!
