Who Only

Psalms 72:18 KJV
Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
I found it interesting that both only and wondrous have in their definition the concept of separation. God is a God of separation. He is holy and separate from this world. He is distinct. God is above and easy to spot. He is not hidden camouflaged in our world but near at hand and so different from this world that anyone looking may see Him.

God alone does the wondrous things
There is none like God. As in Moses day, the magicians may attempt to imitate but they can never even duplicate, let alone originate the wondrous works of God. The doctors and lawyers of this world; the philosophers and religious gurus of history none have done the wondrous things that God alone can and has done.

God does only wondrous things
The works of God are all wondrous and good. They are unique from anything that men have done. God has made nothing ordinary and common. All He has done is wondrous in all ways.

We sometimes lose sight of that. We grow accustomed to the wondrous and when we do we can see God as we ought. God give us eyes to wonder!
