God is Bigger



Recently, I was given a great reminder of who God is in the grand scheme of our individual lives.  Science is good at breaking things down.  We learn how things work and how we can make improvements.  Still, science can’t do everything.  It has not proved God doesn’t exist.  Why are we moved by the beauty of a sunset or the sound of a particular song?  Why do people of faith who are dying seem to have more life in them than the rest of us? There are puzzles in life that cannot be solved in human terms. 

Science can’t explain why faith makes a difference.  Believing it to be a crutch grossly underestimates the power of faith.  The fact of the matter is this:  the God who created the universe did not merely make everything and then go off on His own.  He wants a relationship with mankind.  He wants His creation to worship Him.  

God is bigger than you and me.  He is bigger than the mathematics and sciences we use to study, measure, and improve life and the world around us.  He is beyond our comprehension and imagination.  When life is hard, He is bigger than life and can and will provide a way to overcome according to His plan.
