What a mighty God we serve

I've been thinking about what a mighty God we serve - this phrase is the title of a praise chorus that keeps running through my mind. He is in control and knows the best plan for our lives. Why do we get so caught up in the worldly things? He provides for the birds, the squirrels, and other wild animals, keeps the sun coming up every morning, and keeps us from flying off into space. He surely can handle our everyday needs. I received some flowers from a friend this past week and they still are beautiful. I was looking at them yesterday - each part of the flower is amazing. The colors go from a pale lavendar to a bright yellow - only God could create such beauty. The day lilies (not the official title as Julie would attest) have dark stamen which perfectly contrast again the bright yellow. If God could handle such detail in one simple flower, how can we not rely on Him to take care of us. I remain in awe...
