Psalm 90

"Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,m
from everlasting to everlasting you are God."
Psalm 90:1-2

When I stand in the midst of the grandure of the mountains of the west there is something about it all that makes me feel very small. That God was there as the mountains were formed and the seas took their places is beyond my comprehension. Not just that God was there when it began but God was there before it all began! So I am forced to ponder eternity and how God can be outside of space and time.
The only way I can begin to understand this is to realize that God is not a "thing" like everything else. God is not bound by the ways of time and space that we have come to grips with in order to make sense of our world. All of our attempts to prove or disprove of God's existance will always come up short because God is not 'like' anything else. The only way we can at all begin to even describe God is through the use of imagery and poetry so the psalmist says that before there were even the mountains God was.
So I stand here, small and insignificant in the grand scemes and epocs of this earth of God's. Yet I stand here called into existance by a voice that is oh so sweet when I hear my name called by the one who loves even me.
