"God is Great"

"And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: He shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in Him." (Psalms 37:40) As I was preparing a message for today, and I had pondered the whole idea of God's creation being done in a week, verses six thousand years, and I felt God telling me that He is God, and He can do it any way that He wants; if He wants to make full grown trees that are mature, or planets that have the structure like millions of years, He is God, and He can make them as He feels fit, and as He thinks they should be made. If you think about the span of space, God making trees that appear to be hundreds of years old, really dwarf in comparison to galaxies that are millions and millions light years away. When it comes to trusting God, part of our trust in God is determined by what we believe that God is capable of doing, which is why the Bible starts with the creation of God; if we believe that God has limits to what He is capable of doing, then we are limiting our measure of trust in Him. Our God is greater than we can ever imagine; yet, the Bible says that He knows ever hair on our head; He knows our every thought, and He sees are every tear. The God that we serve is a personal God, who takes time with each and everyone of His children, because He is big enough to do so, and because He loves each and everyone of us the same. It might be hard some times to believe that, especially when we are going through something that is ugly, or a trail that seems unbearable; but He allows us to go through bad situations so that we might draw closer to Him, and that we might take more shelter under the shadow of His wings; that's what "trust" means in the verse above, to trust in God for refuge, and to flee to Him, because He is big enough and cares enough to help us and to deliver us from whatever it is that has come against us. We cannot put any limits on God's ability to do anything, because when we do, we take away from our ability to put all of our trust in Him...
"Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I demand of thee, and answer thou Me. Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding. Who hast laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched the line upon it?" (Job 38:1-5)
