Look

My favorite App on my phone is one that I downloaded by accident. It is from National Geographic and it changes my background every day to a new picture and tells me where it is and a little about it...it shows me things from all over the world (today it's the Rio Negro in Brazil, yesterday the Badab Sourt Spring in Iran, the day before that it was El Capitan in Yellowstone National Park). I have really enjoyed waking up and looking at my phone, I'm met with awe of seeing what God did each morning.

Today I am met in awe again, not just by my a picture on my phone, but of a tomb. An empty tomb. An empty tomb that declares loudly that justice has been satisfied and I have been justified. The punishment for sin has been payed in full, Jesus' blood has satisfied it. Though my sins were like scarlet, they have been made white as snow (Isaiah 1:18). A debt I could not pay, payed for me. It's one of the ultimate look what God did moments and for that I praise God.

  1. National Geographic Photo of the Day is one of my favorite things.

    (I kinda feel like a heathen for not commenting on the point of your post, which is Jesus, who is way cooler than Photo of the Day.)
