God: still bigger than ______

today was one of those days where im going to write and you’re probably either a.) not going to read or b.) skim through the blog because you dont really connect with it at this moment. and thats okay.  i admittedly do it all the time when i vibe a “God rant” coming on from my friends posts. please dont misunderstand me, i have nothing what-so-ever against raving about God, its just that usually such pieces are brought about because of a recent spiritual high for the individual, or something similar. with that said, it is often hard for the viewer (or reader) to “go there” in an equal capacity as the writer experienced it… at least in that moment. unless the writer is really eloquent and well spoken. then he or she should quit blogging and become an author. totally different subject matter there……

ANYWAYS.

i just want to share what the Lord reminded me of today. simple & profound: God is big. He is bigger than my problem, bigger than my dissapointment, bigger than my worries, bigger than my doubt, and bigger than my fear.  He knows the number of hairs on my head! the really annoying bird outside my window right now at 11:15 pm? yeah, He knows about that bird, and He cares for it…. does He not care more for you and i? i challenge you today to think of one way you have “boxed” the almight God in your head, and really try to put that issue into His hands- for good. you might have to wake up and do the same thing the next morning, but are His hands not more trustworthy than our very own? does He not know better for us than what we know/ want for ourselves? it might be something huge…. well, i think sometimes we have not because we ask not.  if you are anything like me, you ask not because really deep down, you doubt God is ever going to show up in a big way for you. i think sometimes i rather never ask than ask and get dissapointed and bitter with the outcome. at least that way, i cant get upset if i dont get it. how foolish of me. He is sufficent.

jeeze

what is with today? seriously, i dont know if i could be more dissapointed pre-children in my life (i say that because everyone seems to start getting dissapointed whenever they have kids to be dissapointed in…).  i will spare you the early part of the day b/c that will come in its own time, but seriously- how do the shoes i currently have on my feet go UP in price as time goes on??? arent older models suppose to get cheaper? i bought these shoes for about 65 bucks… now i cant find them for under 80 (these are running shoes, mind you, so i dont skimp on running shoes). WTF mate, wtf. can a frugile american citizen just catch a break for heavens sake.
