Awe

I am reading a book with the kids about living in the awe of God, how every moment is extraordinary not just ordinary because we serve an extraordinary God. It relates scenes from Star Wars with how we should live our lives. Very interesting. One part that we read spoke of how children are always asking grown ups to "do it again" when they find the "awe" in something, and how we as grown ups think that just gets monotonous. The author then poses the thought that maybe God likes the monotonous; maybe he tells the sun every morning, "Do it again," and the moon, "Do it again." All of creation seems to repeat itself every season, every year. Does that seems monotonous? Not to us, because we get to enjoy the benefits. However, if we had to create the same thing over and over, would we consider it monotonous? God loves us so much that he creates flowers that aren't even seen (i.e. on mountaintops, in forests, etc.). That is "awe". Watching the sunrise and sunset. That is "awe". However, when we realize our minuteness compared to His greatness, there should be mixed with the awe a certain sense of fear, a fear of God and his extraordinary power. I want to live there, in awe every day of God.
