It is not fun to feel small. But when we consider the history of the world, we are all small. Even the greatest leaders die. Their names are in history books, but they do not exist any longer. Likewise, nations and empires come and go. Fame, glory and power are fleeting in this world.

Isaiah’s words above are a powerful commentary on the world. They are a powerful commentary on our personal existence. What seems important and lasting to us is small to God.

Which makes the message of God’s love for us more amazing. God’s love for you is personal – Jesus died for you! God’s plans for you are eternal – he will take you to heaven.

God does NOT view you as small and insignificant. He sees you as part of his family. He worked to save you and continues to work so that your faith sees the reality of his love for you.

The Lord of all creation has your name written into his book. Live in that peace and confidence!

Isaiah 40:15 (NIV) "Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales; he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust."
