HIS VASTNESS
Today's reading: Isaiah 39-40, 2 Corinthians 12:11-13:14, Proverbs 2:1-15
"Who else has held the oceans in his hand? Who has measured off the heavens with his fingers? Who else knows the weight of the earth or has weighed out the mountains and the hills?" Isaiah 40:12 NLT
I don't know what kept you awake last night.
Or has your stomach in knots.
Your heart in turmoil.
Your mind growing doubts like a greenhouse.
I don't know what it is you are keeping from your praying friends, because it's 'too small a matter'.
Or because it's embarrassing.
Or you're too ashamed.
Or because it's 'that again'.
I am unaware of what our enemy has convinced you is outside our Father's abilities, capabilities or sensibilities.
I don't know what the big, fat liar has told you so many times you are believing it to be true.
There is a lot I don't know, but this I do know...
My God is big.
Big enough to handle what it is you are going through.
Strong enough to carry what it is you are struggling beneath.
Loving enough to want to take it from you--if you will only give it to Him.
Who else is that big?
