It seems like the whole world has come to a standstill because of one volcano. The vast plumes of ash, and the molten lava spewing out are massive images that cameras struggle to reproduce. Yet when we worship Jesus, thinking of all this can help us:

• These eruptions are just a fraction of God's power. They're a tiny glimpse of it. Just His voice sent billions of stars spinning into space! That same power is able to go to work through you too!
• The effect of His truth can travel far beyond, and settle on loads more people than this cloud of ash.
• God lasts forever- this volcano will run out... one day!
• His fire can flow into and touch our hearts, changing us and giving us strength to serve Him.
• By His will alone, all things live and move and have their being- including planes.
• God can erupt, by his Spirit, wherever and whenever He wants. Are you ready and waiting for that in your life?
• One day this world will all come to an end- involving what the Bible seems to suggest as a lot of earthquakes and volcanoes. Jesus told us to be ready. Are you?

Let every lake of lava, let every cloud of ash, let every disruption, and every image remind you that the God who made this volcano is the same God who is living in your heart, answering you when you pray and wanting to build His Church and advance His kingdom for His Glory! Do it Lord.
