I can't begin to tell you what God has revealed about Himself to me. Mostly because in my human mind I can't comprehend or begin to explain the vastness of my God! But in all of His vastness and His power, He still wants me. My thoughts, my hopes, my dreams, ALL of me. The King of the universe who sustains all that He has created with a single thought, has precious thoughts of me! In fact, "How vast are the sum of them? If I could count them,they are more than the sand..." (Psalm 139:17-18a). My mind cannot contain such an amazing picture. But it's real, it's true, because it's HIS Word!
And on the other side of it, this God in all of His vastness still takes the time to move all the neutrons, protons and electrons in perfect harmony, creating a symphony of matter that we call LIFE! From the biggest of the biggest galaxies, to the smallest of the smallest elements, God is in, God is with, God IS! And in all of this He knows my name, He knew me before He created this universe, and He wants more then anything to be My Friend!
What sweetness there is in knowing that in our confusion and chaos, God is in complete control. His hand is on all that happens, and when there are days that we don't see Him, He still sees US.
Let me encourage anyone who reads this post: Don't confine God. Sometimes we get comfortable in who we want our God to be that we forget the joy in exploring who He Really IS. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you, and then prepare yourself for the ride of a lifetime!
My God is Big! How big is your God?

This blog post was so amazing. It reminded me of what Louie Giglio spoke about at the Chris Tomlin concert last year.
To think that we are just tiny people on a tiny blue dot in a tiny universe held in the palms of the big God who became our size so we could become His. (My words, not Louie's.)
God is so so good!
