None Like You

Worship to GodMy parents introduced me to the Lord as a young boy. Over the years I’ve gotten to know Him more and more. I remember being afraid of Him. I remember thinking He was some “old man” – a grandpa figure. I remember trying to think about what He would look like if I met Him face to face. As I get older and I turn gray, I’ve learned that God is timeless. He does not age. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Check this out….

4 Even to your old age and grey hairs
    I am he, I am he who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
    I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
5 ‘With whom will you compare me or count me equal?
    To whom will you liken me that we may be compared? (Isaiah 46:4-5 NIV)

 

I’ve always imagined God to have physical attributes like me. I think of Him with a face, hands and feet. I realize that I’m giving physical, human attributes to the Creator of the Universe. I think of Him in terms and attributes that I know from my life experience. It’s hard to wrap my head around someone who operates outside of my realm of thought and experience. Everyone I know has a date that they celebrate as the day of their birth. Everyone I know has a beginning and will one day have an ending on this earth. It’s hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that God has always existed because all I know had a beginning and an ending.

The bottom line is that nothing or no one compares to the Lord. He is the Lord God and forever He is Creator & Sustainer of all I see and know. I’m going to trust Him the rest of my life!

Pressing On!
