A new topic I wanted to hit on was the greatness of God.  I realized that the one thing we so often forget is just how great our God really is.  He is almighty, all powerful, and all knowing.  But do we really see that in prospective?

Imagine all the people on this world, anyone from babies to super tall people, as less than ants.  In fact we are like dust-mites; hardly even noticeable.  Then we have God–this great gigantic being who holds the entire universe in the palm of his hands.  Greater than any human king, he can shove us around with the tip of his finger nail.  He can alter the course of our lives with one flick.  He needs none of us to make a decision; if everyone on the entire universe got together and disagreed with God, His decision is the only one that matters.  So how much does the King of all the universe really care about us if he needs none of us in the first place?

Now imagine this.  This mighty king who is so great and so powerful, who makes us look like a speck on a globe, humbles Himself and sends His son to be a servant to these specks.  He allows us to spit at Him, yell at Him, curse at Him, and look down upon Him just so that we specks on a tiny planet can be with Him.  God, this all powerful, huge being turns Himself into nothing to serve the nothings on a planet that deserves none of His mercy.  He not only humbles Himself to become nothing, but He becomes servant of all the nothings on this planet (us) and dies on the cross so that we can be with Him in heaven.  Now isn’t that the work of someone who truly loves us?
