"To Him Who Alone...."

"To Him who alone does great wonders...." (Psalm 136:4)

Actually, "
To Him who alone"---------------- period.  While "I am crucified with Christ," I was not feeling the pain and suffering of the Cross.  I did not feel the thrust of the sword, the nails driven deep, the lashing, ripping of the 39 stripes.  It was Jesus, "To Him who alone does great wonders."  

I have heard over the years that He needs us to do His work, to reach the lost, heal the sick, change the course of nations.  "He uses our hands, our feet," etc.  There is some truth in this, but in the grand scheme of God's economy, what we do is actually relatively little.  Remember all those Muslims who are experiencing "visitations" of the Lord Jesus?  Then there is the history of Europe during the early twentieth century, when the continent and eventually the whole world was gripped in global struggle for survival.  Written over it all is the glorious declaration of Heaven-------------- "
To Him who alone does great wonders."

The preservation of the Jews over the last 2500 years is, "
To Him Who alone."  The rebirth of the nation of Israel in 1948, that's right, "To Him Who alone."  Of course, continue to pray, evangelize, do missions, serve the poor, vote, and "let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."  But to the arrogant religious person out there, I must say today that the Blessed Trinity really does not need you.  He has been taking care of the universe long before you got here, and He will continue to do so long after you are gone.  Rather, remember deeply and reverently and humbly today that it is all "To Him," the Living Triune God revealed solely in Jesus Christ, "Who alone does great"----everything! 

Father, in Jesus' Name, To You "
who alone" does all things well, who saved me, keeps me, preserves me, sanctifies me, and brings me into your everlasting kingdom, I give thanks.  Amen.
