It came during a AAA Baseball game! God absolutely works in mysterious ways.

My husband, our daughters and I were enjoying a ballgame on a warm August evening. Enjoying, because we were together, we were eating unbelievably delicious ballpark hot dogs and our team was winning. The only negative presence in our world that evening was about 4 ft. tall with tousled bangs, adorable freckles, a #4 little league jersey and an unforgettably irritating "It's-all-about-me-and-I-dare-you-to-say-it-isnt" aura. Recalling whining of this miniature Red's fan makes hairs on my neck stand at attention even today, three years later!

We first became aware of him about 20 minutes before game, when he stomped over our feet while trying to get onto field. Nevermind fact that his frazzled father kept telling him "no". He wanted no part of "no" and, after all, knew more than his dad. So he ignored him and, sure enough, received a good scolding from an usher.

Have you contemplated beauty of God’s majesty lately? Have you heard Him speak lately?

Did you know that God has several blankets with which He cloaks Himself? His coverings are expansive, vast, and immeasurable. His majesty is beautiful and certainly beyond mortal words of explanation. So, it’s best to just stand in awe while we consider Him.

The Lord God covers Himself in three majestic hues—black, gray, and blue. He chooses His wardrobe of blue by day. He desires black by night, and woolen gray during stormy days. He is majestic in His appearance with His wardrobe of many colors.

In Psalms 93:1 it says, “The lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The Lord has clothed and girded Himself with strength; Indeed, world is firmly established, it will not be moved.” (NASB)

In Psalms 97:2 it says, “Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; Righteousness and justice are foundation of His throne.” (NASB)

Why do we consider His majestic covering? His majestic covering accentuates His Glory. To be heard, a voice must be amplified. To make her statement in art, an artist must use bold strokes of her brush. To be seen in midst of gross darkness, light must be greater still. God’s majesty intensifies His glory. Intensity defines our God!
