Indescribable


God is indescribable.

Walk outside in a dark night and look up, the God we worship is beyond our wildest dreams. The stars are telling the wonders of God. He is amazing and bigger than you could ever dream of and the skies declare the work of our God. He is greater than every thought we’ve ever had.

In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth, you can choose to believe there was a big bang, however, His creation was a big bang. What if the primary purpose of the Universe is to show off the splendor of God’s creation? By the word of the Lord the Heavens were made.

If you were to count a star per second from the Milky Way galaxy, it would take 255 years to count them all. Through the Prophet Isaiah he says, “To whom will you compare me, and who is my equal says the wholly one lift your eyes to the heavens who created all of these?” He answers, “the one who leads forth the starry host, one by one and calls them each by name. Because of his mighty strength and great power, not one of them is missing."

“I remember on the way home on Apollo 11, it suddenly struck me, that tiny pea pretty and blue, was the earth. I put my thumb up and shut one eye and my thumb blotted out there earth. But I didn’t feel like a giant, I felt very, very small.” Neil Armstrong.

When we look at your heavens, the work of your fingers the placement of the moon and earth, the greatness of your power, what is man? That God is mindful of us? For how can God care for something so small?

The greatness of our God knows each and every one of our names; we are miniscule in the galaxy he has created. And he invites each and every one of us to have a personal relationship with Him.

Through Jesus, God created the world for as high as the Heavens are above the earth so great is his love for those who fear him. And as far as the east is from the west, this is how far He has removed our transgressions from us. This is astronomical Grace.

Long before you decided what you were going to do with God. God decided what he was going to do with you; and that was to not give you what your sins deserved but to give His son what your sins deserved and to give you the gift of Himself and the invitation to live forever in a big, big story that is all about Him.

Our God is bigger than we could even begin to imagine, and He knows each star and person by name, and cares for each and every one of us and offers us the gift of a lifetime.
