stacking atoms to reach pluto

Ephesians 2:8-9

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Can you imagine it any other way? Have you ever had a really good spiritual week? I'm talking about a week where EVERYthing goes right. You feel like you're right on track. God just HAS to be loving you a little more than he did last week right?

Right?

On man's BEST day - On our best day EVER - We are SO incredibly far from God's Holiness that it's like we barely breathed. And yet, from our pathetic perspectives, we sometimes look at our lives as this ebb and flow of spiritual achievement and failure when, in reality, the incredible distance that man is from God's holiness makes our ups and downs indiscernible.

God forgive us for thinking we're acheiving something on our good days, and forgive us for thinking we're worthless on our bad days.

Lord, help us to trust in your sovereignty as we walk the journey of our lives, and help us to rest in your loving promises as we build a relationship with You.

Yes sir, that title grabbed me. I couldn't read "Stacking Atoms to Reach Pluto" and not read what followed.
Very clever title for a good post. :)
