I know I have said it before, but I love God with everything in me.
I love the Bible, with its rawness and simplicity. I love the tangible presence of God throughout the Words dripping with love, but what I love most is that God is so much more than we can ever comprehend in our finite minds.
I listened to a podcast yesterday, and Kris Vallotton said, ”The Bible is all of God, but God is not all of the Bible.”

Who do you know God to be in your life? What part of God have you held onto in times of need, times of sorrow, times of joy, or even times of peace?

And although we may never truly understand God – the One who is sacrificial love – that’s ok, but let’s trust God enough, for us to hold onto Him, until our dying breath
”These are just the beginning of all that he does, merely a whisper of his power. Who, then, can comprehend the thunder of his power?” Job 26:14
