my God is so great

this morning, in my recently rearranged quiet time (which i deem my "shut up and listen" time), the Lord spoke to my heart, and He told me the truth.

i'm reading through the prison letters of paul, and i was in ephesians toward the end of chapter three, and i learned that God is "able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think".

which therefore means that God is not confined to my limits of logic. He is absolutely not constricted to my ideas, or even to my imagination, wild though it may be. not only could He and can He realize my dreams, He can do far more abundantly beyond.

goodness.


MY GOD IS SO GREAT
SO STRONG, AND SO MIGHTY
THERE'S NOTHING MY GOD CANNOT DO

i am so glad that God is so other than me. i am so glad that He sees the beginning and the end, and why i am here. i am so glad that He sees my deepest heart, and loves me the same.

Okay, this comment is going to make me look like the biggest creeper in the world, but I found your blog because I typed in another friend's blog wrong. Usually I would just fix what I typed and move on, but this post caught my attention- I don't even know if you'll read this or not, but I have been praying about this EXACT thing all day. I needed God to give me some reassurance, and I have full faith that He used your blog to encourage me!! And I felt like you needed to know that- He really IS using you for purposes greater than you could ever ask for or imagine. So there you go :) Thanks!
