How Big is God?

We talk about God as if we can comprehend Him. Quite often believers will say, "We serve a great God!" or "Our God is powerful." The truth is that we cannot fathom in any measurable degree the bigness of God. The closet star to earth (outside of the Sun) is over four (4) light years away. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. This is just one star out of billions in our galaxy called the Milky Way. Listen to this fact: Scientists are now saying that there are billions of galaxies.

The Bible declares in Isaiah 40:12-13, "Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance? Who has understood the mind of the LORD, or instructed him as his counselor?"

I think you and I can agree that our view of God must increase. This is one of the most significant reasons to read the Bible consistently so we can grow in our knowledge of God.The more we know Him, the greater our understanding, faith, and love grows. Take time to look into the heavens. What you will see is a very small segment of the universe; what you will be reminded of is that our great God measures this universe with the span of His hand. Imagine...One day we will see this great God face to face. WOW!

Just think...He is the creator and our God.
