Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts.
What we know about God is confined to our tiny brains, our limited experiences, our willingness to read about the great deeds of God in Scripture, and our hearing of his incredible work through the lives of older Christians. There is nothing quite like listening to a more senior, grace-filled brother or sister in Christ who knows our Lord and has experienced his power through worship, obedience, mission, and experience. Let's commit to sharing our faith and experience with Jesus with future generations!
My Prayer...
God Almighty, by your grace, I call you Abba Father using the word for Father that expresses the intimacy and dependency of a small child. However, your majesty is beyond my ability to comprehend, and your power is beyond my capabilities to grasp. What I do know, dear Father, and what I do understand of you, Almighty God, brings me to my knees in humble adoration and reverent appreciation. Thank you for your love, mercy, and grace that make your majesty approachable and my mortality redeemable. In Jesus' name. Amen.
