Embracing the Unknowable God
As we navigate the complexities of life, it’s comforting to remember that God is unlike anyone or anything we know. His infinite nature, as described in Jen Wilkin’s book “None Like Him,” inspires a sense of awe and reverence.
The Fear of the Lord
When we fear God rightly, we don’t cower in terror; instead, we approach Him with confidence, knowing that Christ has satisfied His wrath towards us on the cross. This fear is rooted in our recognition of God’s limitless power and our own finite nature.
The Infinite and Incomprehensible God
God’s infiniteness is a concept we can’t fully grasp, no matter how hard we try. He is unbound, uncontainable, and immeasurable, making Him utterly unique. As His children, we have the joyful duty of discovering who He is, both in this life and the next.
Worship and Trust
Our worship is not driven by God’s demands, but by our recognition of His role as our Creator. We trust Him to supply our needs, knowing that He has already dealt with our greatest need through Christ Jesus.
Anxiety and Faith
When anxiety threatens to overwhelm us, we find solace in remembering that we can trust the future to God. His sameness is our great hope, ensuring that His love for us will endure despite our imperfections.
Understanding God’s Revelation
As believers, our task is to strive to understand what God has revealed to us. His Word is sufficient for salvation, needful for godliness, and worthy of meditation.
God’s Power at Work
God’s power is at work within us, helping us overcome sin and grasp the extent of His love for us. As we navigate the challenges of life, we can rest in the knowledge that He sees, He is present, and nothing is hidden from Him.
Reflections on God’s Nature
These quotes remind us of the importance of embracing God’s uniqueness and recognizing our limitations. By doing so, we can cultivate a deeper reverence for Him and trust in His goodness, even when we don’t fully understand His ways.
