Sometimes when I dream dreams and wake up in the morning, I remember them. Often times they're not as pleasant as I would like them to be. I am often times frustrated in some way.
Sometimes I will dream that I am flying above the world and there are many places to touch down and land. But I realize that when I land, I still am supposedly much bigger than I think I am supposed to be. I can not properly be inside the environment because I am too big for it and all I see are tiny trees and rocks, myself stepping all over the buildings (if there are any).
Now you think this would be fun--make believe as a giant monster rampaging through the city.
But it wasn't for me and it wouldn't have nearly been as fun as if I were properly sized---small , tiny, minute within the world that was created for me to live in. I would then be able to enjoy the vast and epic landscapes---appreciate the towering mountains, and feel the ocean breeze as my eyes gaze across the then calm lapping waves but imagining the possibility of an engulfing nature of a stormy sea.
Often times in video game concept art---we love to give the similar idea of a vast and epic landscape. We like to feel small.
And that's what I'm getting at.
When we are small, then we can marvel at Creation and the Creator behind it all.
The problem is when we try to control everything in our lives and make ourselves the priority in the lives that were first given to us to be stewards of.
But turning towards God instead of being god frees us to be his humble servants----and when He is glorified, we are most satisfied in Him.
