Our God is an Awesome God

I've been thinking this week on the blessings God has bestowed upon us and those around us this year. It is so awesome to look at all the people God has healed or touched in some way and to realize that He wouldn't do any of it if He truly didn't love people. I look back over the summer and I can count at least 3 people God healed. First would be a lady named Hazel that I go to church with. The doctors were positive that she had cancer and yet when she went back for another scan before the biopsy they couldn't find a thing. Second and dearest to me is my dad. Back at the beginning of July he went to the hospital because he was having a hard time breathing and was having a lot of pain. Well while he was there they diagnosed him with pleurisy and at the same time found unusual spots on the top fourth of both his lungs. Well this worried us because my grandfather died after being diagnosed with lung cancer. Well they did two bronchoscopies and couldn't find anything so at the end of July they did a wedge resection biopsy. Thank the Lord all it was was scare tissue where he had apparently had pneumonia and didn't know it. Finally the most recent one I can think of is a young man whose like family to me. Two years ago he had been diagnosed with cancer and God saw fit to heal him. Well just recently they thought that the cancer had come back except this time it was in his lungs but once again before they even did the biopsy they couldn't find. What makes this story even better is it didn't just thrill those who had been praying it also thrilled the doctors and nurses because they were one hundred percent positive that was cancer and they had just took him back for prep and did another scan and couldn't find a thing. Our God is truly and awesome God. When He rolls up His sleevesHe ain't just puttin' on the ritz(our God is an awesome God)There is thunder in His footstepsAnd lightning in His fist(our God is an awesome God)Well, the Lord wasn't jokingWhen He kicked 'em out of EdenIt wasn't for no reason that He shed his bloodHis return is very close and so you better be believingthat our God is an awesome God Our God(our God) is an awesome GodHe reigns(He reigns) from heaven aboveWith wisdom(with wisdom) pow'r and loveour God is an awesome God And when the sky was starless in the void of the night (our God is an awesome God)He spoke into the darkness and created the light(our God is an awesome God)Judgment and wrath he poured out on SodomMercy and grace He gave us at the crossI hope that we have not too quickly forgotten thatour God is an awesome God
