Luke 5:26 New International Version (NIV)
26 Everyone was amazed and gave praise to
God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things
today.”
Jesus forgave a man who was lame, then showed he had
authority to forgive by healing him. As exciting and important as this healing
was, the most important thing was the reaction of those who witnessed it; they
praised God out of a sense of amazed awe. They recognized that Jesus had come
to minister as God's very presence. When we understand who Jesus is and what he
has done for us and will continue to do for us, we do the same thing today — we
offer our praises with a sense of amazement and awe.
Thought for today: Are
my eyes open to see the wonders of God?
