There is no one like Him. Not a new concept, perhaps, but one that was driven home during my time in Africa.
What did I learn? What did God teach me? That He is to be praised, adored, honored and glorified. That He is worthy of this praise, because there is no one like Him. He created a way back to Himself, we are reconciled to Him.
What an incredible gift. Nothing else compares.
On my face in praise, overwhelmed with gratitude and His loveliness, all I can manage is to sob out “Hallelujah”
Hallelujah.
I have seen patients who should have died, pull through and live. Their healings were nothing short of miraculous, God saved their lives. Others have been delivered from the demons that tortured them with waking nightmares and fear.
Still others found the truth of Jesus and it changed their lives as nothing else ever could.
God has intervened in my own life during this time. He has provided for my needs in overwhelming ways, proving to me His love, His ability as my Father. He has demonstrated His faithfulness by showing me my sinfulness and areas that He wishes to heal, with the divine purpose of restoring me to Him, restoring me to the woman he intended me to be.
He has comforted me when I faced difficult choices, when I faced the poverty, suffering, illness and death surrounding me.
But none of this compares with who he is. WHO HE IS! What an astounding, perspective changing, life altering realization, His beauty, His power, His goodness.
Him.
Beautiful.
Hallelujah.

Beautiful Sarah. Thanks for this reminder. So true. No One like Him. He stands ALONE as Holy.
Dear Sarah,
HALLELUIA! You have learned the most important thing there is to learn. And just hearing someone else tell us that it is important doesn't even make the difference, knowing it because we (you) have found the need and desperation to go face to face with the living God is what makes all the difference and value to us.
We love you.
Stan
This is a wonderful reminder of what we should all be learning as we walk with Him in whatever He has called us to do. Your thoughts are a great encouragement to me. Thanks!
