Nothing Is Missing!


Do you ever feel like something is missing in your life? There's a void in life? Sometimes you feel like you missed an opportunity or you’re missing a relationship or you’re missing…well you get the point…With life not quite where you want it to be, it feels like SOMEthing must be missing. But there’s a Word from the Lord today and a reminder of his power:

Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these things,
Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name,
By the greatness of His might and the strength of His power;
 Not one is missing. (Isaiah 40:26)

Not one is missing! In this day, God wants to remind you that He is the Lord of all details. Not even a leaf on a tree is out of place. In our finite minds, we think that perhaps He has forgotten this or not seen that. As we endure life’s uncomfortable moments and experience life’s awe-inspiring times, we sometimes forget that God is a part of it all. He skips nothing. He leaves nothing out. Sometimes we have to be reminded just how grand and sovereign He is. His power extends beyond what we will ever understand. One of the following verses says “The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable.” His greatness is incomprehensible! Though you can’t understand why he/she died or you’re getting tired of all the madness on your job or you are losing faith in whatever promises He made to come to pass, be rest assured that the Lord we serve understands all and has seen to every detail.

And when you catch hold of that, it is then that you can truly celebrate the ending of the chapter…the popular verse that everyone remembers:  “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.” (vs 31) God has truly got your back. He’s more efficient than the greatest of event planners and has orchestrated this event we call life to a Tee. He has called you by name. He has seen to every detail. Not one is missing.

Be encouraged!

Blessings,
