My God Is Big!
Sunday, May 06, 2007
When Henry Norris Russell, the Princeton astronomer, had concluded a lecture on the Milky Way, a woman came to him and asked, "If our world is so little, and the universe is so great, can we believe God really pays any attention to us?" Dr. Russell replied, "That depends, madam, entirely on how big a God you believe in."
I saw this quote and I was reminded that I serve a God of great strength, of great force who operates on an infinite scale, where I am limited He is unlimited, where I am weak, He is strong, His thoughts are not my thoughts, His ways are not my ways. He holds the universe in His hand, He holds tomorrow, He is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above whatever I could ask or think.
That gives me joy!!!

Wow Awesome Post!
Sister dana,
Praise Jesus, it's NOT about me but All about Him Amen?!
Thank you for constantly keeping me in your prayers! I truely appreciate as there are days where 'everything' seems to go wrong, ever encountered such?
I am learning to rest in Jesus, to do one thing an a time as in the scripture, it says, do not worry about tomorrow for the day will worry about by itself!
Sister Dana, you are in my prayers! Our Father is the King over the storm Amen?!
My favour verse: Peace I leave with you, My Peace I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful: John 14:27 [NASB]
This is the day, this is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice & be glad in it!
God is with you...
Aren't we so blessed to be able to serve a God that is so abundant!
Blessing,
Lori
Great post, Dana. I love that quote.
Isn't it awesome that God chose to listen to and care for us amongst all other things He's created. He sure is a big God and then He has big arms to reach us no matter where we are.
Loved your post.

You made me realize how BIG He really is. Beyond BIG. With Him all things are possible.
Another good post Dana ! I've often think about Gods Amazing Grace and wonder where this ship would be without His abundant Grace ? Blessings. Ron.
