Glory in the Little Things (song series)


Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;

And let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”
Let the sea roar, and all it contains; 
Let the field exult, and all that is in it.
Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the Lord;
1 Chronicles 16:31-33

God will always be glorified.  We find His glory existing around us all the time.  Through His creation, the very trees applaud. The rivers swell to display His power.  The rains pour to prove His provision.  They are all here to glorify the One who designed and intended for their existence. 


I try to see into the little things that glorify God– the sweet pudgy fingers of my little girl that will someday be raised to worship, the laughter and energy of my little boy who naturally expresses the vitality God has given him, and the gift of love and companionship that comforts me with a warm hug at the end of a long day. The singing birds, the sunny day, the spring flowers, the cool breeze are all there to reflect God's beauty, love, provision, peace, and joy and return to glorify Him in their existence and the thanks we lift for the opportunity to share in it!

And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying,
“To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”
Revelation 5:13


Glory in the little things
Becki J Buescher

Through the curtains, spill the light
Bids my eyes awake
To greet the morning with a simple song
of hope and joy and thanks

Find Glory in the little things
That exist to worship You
I know its gonna be a good day
If I start my day with You

A toddler’s laughter, a newborn’s smile
A man of God holding my hand
Enjoying beauty in the design
of creation You have planned

Find Glory in the little things
That exist to worship You
I know its gonna be a good day
If I give my day to You

A starry sky, and heavy eyes
My little loves drifting off to sleep
Another day comes to an end
And I thank God once again

Find Glory in the little things
That exists to worship You
I know its gonna be a restful night
If I end my day with You

Whatever lies ahead
New Mercies will be found
For the Giver of this humble life
May praise always resound
