Pastor's Corner

for Sunday 21st March
Our God is so big, so strong and so mighty there’s nothing our God cannot do!
The largest animal on earth is the blue whale. Just the flippers on its tail are bigger than most animals on earth. But a blue whale isn't anywhere as big as a mountain. If you put hundreds of blue whales in a huge jar, you could put millions of "whale jars" in a hollowed out Mount Everest. But Mount Everest isn't nearly as big as the earth. If you stacked a hundred Mount Everests on top of each other they would only be a whisker on the face of the earth. And the earth isn't anywhere as big as the sun. You could fit over one million earths inside the sun. But the sun isn't anywhere as big as the red super giant star called Antares. Fifty million of our suns could fit inside Antares. But Antares isn't anywhere as big as the Milky Way galaxy. Billions of stars, including super giants like Antares, as well as countless comets and asteroids, actually make up the Milky Way galaxy. But the Milky Way galaxy isn't near as big as the universe. There are literally, billions of other galaxies in the universe. And yet, the universe is almost totally empty. The distances from one galaxy to another are beyond our imaginations. It simply defies exhaustive comprehension. And so does the One who made it! To think that he did all this with just a spoken word! Incredible! But if the truth be known, it was only an infinitely limited expression of his power. It was nothing to Him! Whatever your needs are, you have not exhausted his strength and power. Whatever your concerns, you have not run his emotional well dry. Whatever your situation, his hand is not too short to save, provide, lead, and fight for you. Whatever the depth of your offenses against him, he is not prevented from forgiving, releasing, and drawing near the truly repentant person. Nothing is too hard or too big for him! For He is BIGGER than everything! (Borrowed from an article by Greg Herrick, Ph.D.)
