\n

From His dwelling place He looks [intently] upon all the inhabitants of the earth\u2014
\nHe Who fashions the hearts of them all, Who considers all their doings.
\nNo king is saved by the great size and power of his army;
\na mighty man is not delivered by [his] much strength.
\nPsalms 33:14-16<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

How mighty is our God! \u00a0He is the One Who can command the world to be made from nothing, into what we have now. In seven days, God spoke into existence each thing that exists. From the birds of the air and the annoying mosquitoes to the horses and, finally us, He created us for companionship.<\/p>\n

Companionship means ‘the good feeling that comes from being with someone else<\/em>‘. I would imagine that the companionship that exists in heaven is wonderful. Everyone getting along, no arguing, no complaining, no chores, no nagging backaches! Just imagine that—no more pain. Thinking on this reminded me of this song. We sung this in choir in high school in 1979. No on can stand alone, no matter what he\/she make think.<\/p>\n

No Man Is An Island<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

No man is an island, no man stands alone
\nEach man’s joy is joy to me
\nEach man’s grief is my own
\nWe need one another, so I will<\/span> defend
\nEach man as my brother
\nEach man as my friend<\/p>\n

No man is an island far out in the blue
\nWe all look to One above
\nWho our strength doth renew
\nWhen I help my brother
\nThen I know that I plant the seeds
\nOf friends\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 that will never die<\/p>\n

I saw the people gather
\nI heard the music start
\nThe song that they were singing
\nIs ringing in my heart<\/p>\n

No man is an island, no man stands alone
\nEach man’s joy is joy to me
\nEach man’s grief is my own
\nWe need one another, so I will<\/span> defend
\nEach man as my brother
\nEach man as my friend<\/p>\n
