Did you hear Matt Chandler's message at the Catalyst Unpluggued session on Wednesday night during this past Catalyst Conference?!  I was listening to it yesterday on my drive from Boulder, CO to Las Vegas, NV along I70 West, and while passing through Utah I was overwhelmed wtih the reality of what Matt was saying. 

At one point during Matt's message I found myself faced with a sobering look at the majesty of God and how our part in the greater story isn't even really about us.  "Does He need our help?!  NO!"  What would I do if I fully grasped His majesty and my otherwise unworthy position before Him?  How would I walk through life if I fully understood His greatness and my desperate need for Him...AND THEN, His uncanny faithfulness?!  Is he a fainting goat or a powerful lion?  Am I really invited to know Him?

I pulled over to get out of the car and just sit in this paralyzing truth...I walked over to a ledge and looked out across the horizon.  This was the image I saw...

one little tree...

One little tree dwarfed by the horizon of towering mountains...captivated by the majestic sight. Am I any different when I gaze on the glory of God? He is captivating, He is good...
