Words of Encouragement April - 20 - 2003
What we know about God is confined to our small brains, our limited experiences, our willingness to read about the great deeds of God in Scripture, and our hearing of his incredible work through the lives of older Christians. There is nothing quite like listening to older, grace-filled brothers and sisters in Christ who know our Lord and his power through worship, obedience, and experience.
The writer of Psalm 145:3-4 helps us with these thoughts.
Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
Let us go to our heavenly Father in prayer.
God Almighty, by your grace we call you Abba Father. Your majesty is beyond our ability to comprehend and your power is beyond our ability to grasp. What we do know, dear Father, and what we do understand, Almighty God, brings us to our knees in humble adoration and reverent appreciation. Thank you for your love, your mercy, and your grace that makes your majesty approachable and our mortality redeemable.
In Jesus' name.
Amen.
