A daily dose of spiritual exercise for men in various stages of their Christian walk

Limitless

Filed Under Devotional

It happens time and again. I’m embarrassed with each occurrence, but I fall into the same trap repeatedly. I continually set low expectations for God. I imagine that my problems are too petty. I rationalize that, in the big scheme of things, my current issue doesn’t matter. Sometimes, I convince myself that my prayers are unanswered because I haven’t earned it, yet. And, occasionally, I actually come to the conclusion that something is too big and I decide, “That’ll never happen.”

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” Romans 8:31-32

I can almost see Paul waving his arms madly at me. “What are you thinking, kid? How can you think He’s not big enough? How can you think He won’t give you everything you need? How can you think He doesn’t care?”

It’s clear that my God is bigger than I can comprehend because my brain can only deal with limited entities. My disappointment turns to joy, though, as I realize that this bigger-than-I-can-conceive God loves me and is actively leading me to the best life possible.

God rocks!
