About letting the infinite touch your life…
Psalms 90:2 Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and
the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. (NIV)
God is infinite. God is infinite in size, in love, and in power. To talk of
the infinite nature of God is difficult. We do not appreciate the infinity of
God because we cannot know about what is infinite. Although we cannot know all
about the infinite, we can open our life to the touch of the infinite. We can
sense there is a supernatural being much bigger than we are in our life. When we
have problems or issues, if we open our heart, we can sense in real and dynamic
ways the presence of this infinite supernatural being we call God. We can sense
the bigness of God but we cannot know what the bigness of God fully means. What
is most amazing about the infinite nature of God is we can be touched by His
infinite nature. We can open our heart and life up to God's infinite love, His
infinite mercy, and His infinite forgiveness. In our fallen and broken humanity,
we can think we are not worthy, but our human unworthiness is overwhelmed and
erased by the infinite forgiveness of God. In our fallen and broken humanity, we
can think we are unlovable, but our being unlovable is overwhelmed and erased by
the infinite love of God. In our fallen and broken humanity, we can think there
is no way God or anyone could ever forgive us, but God is infinite in His
forgiveness and we receive forgiveness from Him. Lastly, when we open our heart
and life up to the infinite, we are touched, changed, and transformed by His
infinite love, mercy, and redeeming power.
