How Big is Your GodTuesday, July 5, 2016

Sometimes we can get so overwhelmed by our circumstances that we forget the resources that are available to us when we have God as our partner. He is, after all, the Creator of the Universe.

To help regain a little perspective about what that means, consider this:
The Milky Galaxy, of which our solar system is only a part, is about 100,000 light years in diameter. That’s huge! But with the development of the Hubble Space Telescope, scientists have now been able to estimate that the universe contains at least 125 BILLION galaxies. Wow! That’s beyond huge!

And the amazing thing is that the same God who created all of that is intimately concerned about what’s going on in your life and is ready and willing to help you overcome every challenge you face. In fact, the Bible actually says in Ephesians 6:10 (AMP) to “be strong in the lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides].”

We may be overwhelmed by our difficulties at times, but God never is. It’s all “small stuff” to Him. That’s why He wants us to draw on His strength instead of our own.

I encourage you to spend time every day focusing on the greatness of God. I guarantee it will give you a brand new perspective on your problems and keep you in faith.
