If Only I Could Grasp the Greatness of God

If only I could grasp the greatness of God.
My default view of God is much smaller than I cognitively know Him to be.
I want to be caught up in the wonder of who He is. The wonder of His creation. The wonder of his power.

I want to expect the unexpected. To pray for the unexpected.



I want to delight in the simple. To see the beauty in things I overlook.

I want to see God's face in every person I encounter. Because each one is created in His image.

I want to always know that He loves me. That His plans for me are excellent. Even when they are hard.

I want to be in awe of God's ability to see and know not only me, but every single person.

He loves me. He knows me. He desires a relationship with me.

And He loves the people around me. He knows them. He desires a relationship with each of them.

He loves the people I have never met. He knows them by name. He knows them inside out. He desires a relationship with each of them.          

How can that be?
And yet it is.
It's mind boggling.

How can I not be in awe?
How can I not fall on my knees and surrender every aspect of my life?
Not just in my mind but in the way I live my life, in the way I respond to stress and work and friends and family?

How can I not serve Him in every aspect of my life?

If only I could grasp the greatness of God.
Always.
