January 31, 2013 – Psalms 135
I think people always want to challenge God’s existence by tackling the really abstract questions about life and why we are here and things like that. When I read this Psalm, I was thinking about God making a storm cloud and how, even though I know some have tried, humans cannot do something like that. Whether we get rain or not is simply out of our control. God sends it or He doesn’t. When you look up and see a cloud ask yourself how it came to be. A person can answer that scientifically, but those types of answers always get down to the very detailed or very smallest parts and they all come to a point where the next step cannot be explained by science. Even though we should investigate those facts and seek out the scientific truth behind things and not fear its result because all Truth comes from God, there also comes a time when we should look up at the clouds and thank God for putting it there because He is the one that did and no one can really explain completely how. That is why we bless the Lord, because He is God, and we are not.
