(Let GOD BE GOD)
I come to nourish and placate My People.
How many of you feel I have stepped out of your life and am busy doing something else?
You must believe that this can happen because so often you will say “I don’t want to bother God with my small problem, concern. He has enough to do.”
So, right away you see, you have made a god that is limited!
You believe or seem to believe in a god who is limited, and cannot do it ALL all at once.
What a belief! How did you come upon such a belief?
I mean what brought you to think that I can’t deal with each person’s problem, no problem at all?
Do you see what I mean?
We belittle God not even realizing that is what we are doing.
We have put Him in human form where His Power is limited by time and space.
Let God BE God.
Not the god of your making because He then cannot BE God.
Tell Him you want Him to BE the God of ALL in your life, as well as the God of ALL in each person’s life, now and throughout Eternity.
So, when you restrict God’s Grandeur and Power you will fail to recognize it when it is all around you.
You will not see the Grandeur of each new spider’s web.
Yes, let’s go there.
We see a spider’s web once and maybe are impressed, but when we see them every day we seem to lose our appreciation of God’s Grandeur at work in the spider and the spider web.
We take God for granted.
We don’t want to impose perhaps because we do not want others to impose their pain and need on us. Hmmm?
Is this where our limitation of God comes from?
Because we feel we can’t handle all the mess in the World, so how in heavens name could He handle it.
It is beyond our comprehension.
Thus and therefore we let Him off the hook of caring for us constantly because we think we are doing Him a favour.
Really??
Really, it is the other way around.
He is doing us such a great Kindness that we would not, cannot even grasp the fullness of it.
Ask our dear Lord to Grace us with the sense of how Mighty and Powerful and All Loving He is.
So, the next time you have a problem, BRING IT TO ME.
Otherwise, you are not acknowledging God as God.
Scary, isn’t it, that we can think that we are paying homage and praise to Him when we really aren’t.
If we do not trust that He can handle ALL THINGS altogether, then we do not trust in God!!
