Indescribable!

My housemate L. brought home this great DVD, called "Indescribable". It's about God's creation - and just how amazing and powerful God is. Sometimes it's easy to forget that - we get caught up in our own lives - in our own little worlds and forget just how awesome our Creator really is.

Louie Giglio, the speaker, shows some amazing pictures of the universe - taken by the Voyager and the Hubble space craft. The pictues are just beautiful and breathtaking. What an amazing God we have. A God of power and beauty and majesty. The psalmist says, "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands" (Psalm 19:1) and, "In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands" (Psalm 102:25).

The sermons by Giglio can be found on http://www.northpoint.org/messages. Towards the bottom of the list of sermons are two sermons by Giblio, entitled "Significant Insignificance" and "Astronomical Grace". You can even view it in Flash Video if you click on the "F". But if you want to get a good view of the amazing pictures, you may want to consider ordering the DVD or borrowing it from someone.

Perhaps this series is named after the recent Chris Tomlin song, "Indescribable". The lyrics are as follows:

"From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God"
