  • We try so hard to wrap the infinite in the finite
    We try so hard to grasp Him with our minds
    We try so hard to fit Him into a box to our liking

    We can no more hold the infinite God within the bounds of our finite minds than we can hold and mold the wind. We can no more understand the ways of God than we can comprehend the vastness of the universe.

    We are narrow-minded, short-sighted, and arrogant enough to believe that we can know the infinite God.
    We should step back and stand under a silent, star-filled sky and realize that there is far more to God than we have ever been told, that we can begin to comprehend.

    God is awesome, not because He destroys our enemies
    Not because he makes us healthy, wealthy, and wise
    Not because he makes us special
    Not because he bows to our whims

    God deserves to be recognized as awesome simply because He is, and all that He is, all that He has created, is far, far, far beyond our comprehension, beyond our imagination. Beyond the things of this world.
