“What is man that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man that You take care of him? (Hebrews 2:6)
My phone chirps announcing a new text from my son. I touch the screen and watch in wonder as a sepia image appears. A head, with distinct features, and two precious little hands can clearly be seen. Our grandson was in the perfect position to have his image captured that day.
A precious new life. Made in the image of God.
Everything about that should stun us.
Yet it is such a small part of the story. When we take in the incarnation, resurrection, ascension, the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and the eternal reign of Christ we see a great God Who knows, loves, and cares for us.
The wonder and knowledge of this has the power to move the lowliest sinner to repentance. George Beverly Shea saw the truth of this at every Billy Graham Crusade.
The Wonder of It All, written in 1955, was Shea's attempt to describe what it was like watching hundreds of people come forward to accept Reverand Graham's invitation.
