1 Chronicles 28:9b (NLT): "Worship and serve Him with your whole heart and a willing mind. For the Lord sees every heart and knows every plan and thought..."

Have you ever stood close to a massive wind turbine and taken in its colossal size? It can be quite overwhelming. At close inspection, many of our problems can seem just as intimidating as they loom over us, which makes it difficult to find hope to overcome them. Our trouble is looking at them from a natural point of view. When you are flying in an airplane however, and you look down over the same wind turbine, it looks small and insignificant. Changing our view of problems to see them as God does, gives us a completely different perspective. How do we do this? We set our eyes on Him in worship. We focus on His Majesty and power. We understand that everything is subject to Him alone. And in spite of His incomparable greatness, He is fully aware of our thoughts and hearts, and knows every detail of every plan concerning us. And He is for us, not against us. Take your eyes off the impossibility of your problems and lay them at His feet. Then give yourself to Him in worship, yielding to His Presence, power and will. Surrendered to Him, you are fully equipped to overcome every challenge - as you remember how you are known and loved.
