Of Ants and Men
Ok, I know....I'm on a roll now and can't stop. But, here's another thing I was thinking about while driving out to my parents' house last night. It is amazing that God speaks to us. I have heard the way God relates to us explained by imagining if God were a human and people were ants. An ant cannot possibly understand anything in our world - what we say when we speak, the reasons we do things - they can't even comprehend us......in the same way that we don't understand everything about God. He's too big, too powerful....He's so above us in every way, that we don't understand the reasons He does things. Yet, He reaches us. Somehow, He is able to break through, into our little world and speak to us. Can you imagine trying to communicate with an ant???? It would be impossible! It doesn't matter how many different ways we would try to talk to an ant, it would never understand. But, God is so awesome, that He can do the impossible. And, He does it without us even SEEING Him. He speaks to us without us even actually HEARING Him. I know, maybe this doesn't seem like a big deal to anyone else, but the more I think about, the more AWESOME it becomes in my mind.

Keep them coming sister I'm loving this!
It IS awesome, Ame. And when you think of the way we crush ants underfoot, without giving them a second thought, because they're so small and "insignificant", it makes it even more amazing that God just moves around all of our little anthills, speaking our little ant language to us...and NEVER crushes any of us because He knows us all by name and we have value to Him.
