There's nothing like being stuck in the house by two-plus feet of snow to give you time to stop and think about the one true God, the Creator of all things. Just as sure as He is bringing this mind-boggling amount of snow our way, He will surely bring the sun and warm weather to us in season. Although it may take a blizzard or a natural disaster to make us stop and ponder the omnipotence and majesty of God, the reality is that the signs are around us each and every day.
Isaiah 40:26 says: Look up into the heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of his great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing. This verse alone should stop us in our tracks and praise Him for his sustaining power. The stars are by far the largest of all created things, yet their very presence, order and place are all controlled by the One who created them---each and every day.
If God didn't sustain all things, the world (including each and every one of us) would collapse into oblivion. Praise God that he didn't just create everything and let nature and circumstance take control, but rather He chose to be intimately involved every moment with his creation.
