Psalm 97

The Lord is king! Let the earth rejoice;
let the many coastlands be glad!
Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
Fire goes before him,
and consumes his adversaries on every side.
His lightnings light up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of all the earth.

To better understand God we consider God's creation.

We look to the power of nature, and typically turn to the most powerful forces in nature.

If we also understand Jesus to be God fully revealed in natural form, what then?

We might look in the mirror: there is the vulnerability and possibility of God.

In the life of Jesus we see God working through our pain with a very quiet power.
