Encouraging Words 3/13/10 The Whole World in His Hands

From:  Love Worth Finding

“And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.” Colossians 1:17


We sing about the Lord having the whole world in His hands. But do you know what is more remarkable than that? He has the whole universe in His hands.

He’s the One who spoke it into existence. He’s the One who keeps it going. He’s the One who is going to fold it up like a garment and tuck it away in a drawer somewhere. He regulates it; He rules it, and He runs it.

When you pick up the newspaper and read something alarming, you don’t need to panic. That just says “Praise God, I told you so!” God is in control! He, who flung the stars in space, has the whole universe in His hands!

Take the hand of a child today and look at the stars twinkling in the night sky or a flower beginning to bloom, then share about the awesome Creator and Sustainer of all.
