Surprised by God
Written by bunnytrails on February 28, 2008 – 1:21 am -Do you ever find yourself astonished by God? Does He answer your prayers, spoken or not, and just take you by surprise? That’s happened countless times in my life, and after awhile, I began to think that I shouldn’t be so caught off-guard. He IS God after all. The same God who parted the Red Sea (Exodus 14:13-31). The same God who caused the sun to stand still (Joshua 10:12-14). Obviously, His power has no bounds, so why should I continue to be surprised? Just about the time I started to think that I shouldn’t be surprised, God showed me that I was heading down the wrong path. I believe that God really enjoys blowing my socks off. If I don’t remain in awe of my holy and wondrous God, I can become apathetic and begin to take Him for granted. That’s the last thing I should ever do.
He is always revealing new and glorious things about Himself. Because He’s so far beyond my comprehension, I will never know Him completely while here on earth. Just when I begin to feel comfortable in my faith, He usually rocks my world; sometimes in a difficult way, other times it’s a “Wow!” way. Either way, I look forward to God continuing to blow me away with His love, majesty, and power.
