God's Greatness

GOD is magnificent; he can never be praised enough. There are no boundaries to his greatness.
Psalm 145:3 (The Message)


"We believe that this human life is a great gift, that every part of it is designed by God and therefore means something, that every part is blessed by God and therefore to be enjoyed, that every part is accompanied by God and therefore workable.

We can't get away from God. He's there whether we like it or not, whether we know it or not. We can refuse to participate in God; we can act as if God weren't our designer, provider, and covenant presence. But when we refuse, we're less; our essential humanity is less. Our lives are diminished and impoverished."
