We are Ants!

I just saw this satellite image from the Obama inaugaration and it blew me away.  I’ve heard of God having a “heavenly perspective” but this picture really brings it home.  It reminds me of Psalms 8 when David cries out “When I look at the night sky and see the works of your fingers–the moon and the stars that you set into place–what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?”  Think about it…when was the last time you thought about the welfare of ants?  When was the last time you bent down and scooped up an ant and fed him…gave him shelter…inquired about his day?  If you’re like me, you have never done that because that would be crazy!  But, it astounds me that our God is crazy enough to feed me, provide for me, listen to my selfish prayers, heal my frail body and send His only son to die for me.  An ant!
