I wrote this sometime in the past and recently came across it on Joe's facebook page. As a teacher, I really don't like to review. I find it boring. However, I see the merit of it, especially in our walk with Christ. I thought I'd repost this as it seems to be constantly true in my life:
Lately I’ve felt that God is teaching me to see Him for who He truly is. I tend to want to put Him in a box (or more accurately a lamp that I can rub when I want something). My God, the God of the Bible is so Big, so Powerful, so Merciful, so Perfect. He is really beyond description. When I start to view Him as another human being, that’s when the trouble starts. Sure, God did manifest Himself as a human through Jesus Christ, but God is not first and foremost human. I cannot approach my relationship with Him casually and then act like a pouting child when things do not go my way. My prayer for you (and myself) is that we would study the Scriptures and worship the God that is found there. He is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
