Five Minute Friday: Wonder

When I first read the topic for today and saw that it was "wonder" the song that came into my head was "The Wonder of it All." I have been humming it all afternoon until I can get to writing my post for the day. First, here are the beautiful lyrics (which I copied and pasted). =)

          There's the wonder of sunset at evening.
          The wonder as sunrise I see;
          But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
          Is the wonder that God loves me.


          There's the wonder of sprintime and harvest;
          The sky, the stars, the sun;
          But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
          Is the wonder that's only begun.



          There's the wonder of God's revelation,
          The Word who dwelt amongst men;
          But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
          Is that Jesus is coming again.


              Chorus
              Oh, the wonder of it all,
              The wonder of it all
              Just to think that God loves me!
              The wonder of it all,
              The wonder of it all -
              Just to think that God loves me!

God's creation first of all is a wonder for me. I love looking at nature and seeing the smallest things through the simple microscopes, see the sun set (I am not a morning person so I probably won't see the sun rise too often), see the stars in the sky, see the plants go from a small seed to something big. But through all these "wonders" that God has given I even more amazed at God's love for me.
Sometimes, its hard for me to really see how God can love me so much! I wonder at times why God can love someone who feels that I fail Him. The wonder of God's love is so overwhelming and humbling---
