how great is our God!!!

We sang this song in worship service today. We sang it at my friends memorial service a week ago as well. I sit in a lil booth during the worship service because i run the power point, which is a video which displays the song lyrics for the whole congregation to follow along and sing. A cool part of being there is i am up a lil higher than the pews and thus can look out over the congregation watching who keeps their eyes open during prayer time whos not listening during the sermon and fun stuff like that. i also can sit and look at the cross standing prominently in the background. i reflect on Jesus, both hung on the cross dying for us all and then rising again having conquered sin and death and evil once for all!!!!! All of us have our own daily struggles we deal with, some of us deal with things for years, even a lifetime others may be more able to overcome and live in the power he always provides in a much bolder fashion. One thing really hit me today as the entire congrgation sang this song


God loves us as we are sinners through and through... and He works within us and through us and around us to guide us to become as completely aware of His presence and love and grace as He wants for us to have even if it may seem we are helplessly alone and without any sign of his presence HE IS THERE!!!!!

HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD SING WITH ME HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD

We sang this song at our worship service too today. I almost thought we went to the same service, because for some reason, everyone seemed to get into the song a little bit more than usual. But when you mentioned the cross in the background, I knew it wasn't the same, because our service is held at franklin high school and there isn't a cross, just a lot of artwork and photographs and things like that.

i go to imago dei community.
