Read more, por favor…

It reminded me of the book of Job when God gives him a series of questions that point out who He was.  It starts in Job 38, and the questioning goes all the way to chapter 42.  One question in particular that blows my mind is in verse 12 of Job 38.  God asks, “Have you ever given orders to the morning, or shown the dawn its place…”

I also love Psalm 33:7 – “He gathers up the waters of the seas into jars…”

The imagery in these verses are quite epic, yet they really don’t even begin to describe how big God really is.  It’s the best we can do as finite people.

God is huge.
He’s everywhere.  All you have to do is look around.  You can also find Him in His Word.  He’s there too.  He’s everywhere.  He made it all….and He’s good.

Where do you see God ? Nature? People? Both? Neither?
