Something to ponder...

I was reading a book the other day when I came across this analogy. I thought it was a really good way to put things into perspective.
"If my mind is the size of a soda can and God is the size of all the oceans, it would be stupid for me to say He is only the small amount of water that I can scoop into my little can."
~ Francis Chan, in his book 'Crazy Love'.
That statement helped me to realize how huge my God is and how our limited minds tend to think "well that is all I can comprehend so that is all God is". He is so much more than I can wrap my mind around. I serve a BIG God!
