God is HUGE

We've been studying the names of God on Wednesday nights and we're drawing to the close of this interesting time together.  I will tell you openly that I thought I had a concept of who God is but studying His names has brought out so much to me that I had not taken the time to learn about my Father. 

We have talked about God our healer, God our peace, God our banner, God who supplies my needs.  We have discussed the strong names of God, the caring names of God, and even our Master/servant relationship with God.  All of these studies have been fascinating to me. 

Last night, though, we learned about Elohim, the Strong Creator, and it was incredible.  As I prepared for this class my mind was racing but discussing it with my brothers and sisters in Christ really blew my mind!  Some of the things that we discussed are

God is life:  He is not only the source of all life, He is life.  Everything exists because He is in it.  Sounds simple, doesn't it?  Think about it for a minute, though.  Everything that we know is because He is.  Wow. 

God is self-existent:  He was around before anything, even before the beginning of creation.  No one created God. 

God is bigger than space and time:  God has no boundaries, no limitations, by space or time.  He's bigger than either of those because He created them both.  I'm a self-proclaimed calendar junkie and scheduler extraordinaire.  To think that God doesn't have to be limited by 24 hours in a day and 7 days a week is a lot for my mind to digest. 

I hope that these tidbits have whetted your appetite to learn more about God.  Check out the concordance of your Bible or go to this link My Father's Names.  God is fascinating and He wants us to know Him more. 

Check Him out for yourself today.  He's change your life!!!
