Quite overwhelming

Inspired as I stood on Glen Nevis.


Surrounded by the hills,
Enormous,
So high.
All encompassing.
Standing beneath all,
Is me.
Compared to them,
I am tiny!

Yet God almighty,
Who made the heavens and the earth,
Cares for me.
Overwhelmed at the majesty and enormity
of creation.
I stand and cannot really grasp God’s love for me.
Yet God knew me, before I was born.
As tiny as I was.
I stand overwhelmed at God’s love.
God’s love for little me,
God's love for creation.
Then I am reminded:
A child of God, created as were the hills, treasure
And loved today and everyday.
