I was scanning through my face book page when suddenly I saw a picture of the rear window of a vehicle. On it were the letters;
HE > i
It reminds me of a song my mom used to sing; “Bigger than all my questions, bigger than all my fears God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see. Bigger than all my problems, bigger than all my fears, God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see.” Isn’t that what it’s all about? Learning that He is greater than I am? Knowing that everything I face in life has a ceiling, a limit, an end? Knowing this simple fact can change a whole lot of discouragement, defeat and self loathing in every area of our lives. He is greater than I.
I John 3:20 says; “For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.” There is it is again, God is greater than I. My dear friend, don’t let anyone or anything in life tell you that you don’t amount to anything, that you’re a loser, that God doesn’t love you. You are deeply loved! Loved by a God who gave everything just to make Himself assessable to us. He wants to talk with you, walk with you, provide for you, keep you in peace. It’s more than that, the Greater One lives in you, which makes you great! Think of that. Galatians 2:20 says; “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”
Christ lives in me. Me. That means the Great God of this universe, the God who is greater than me lives in me. How can I think differently than He thinks of me? It’s when we know who we are in Christ that we become the greatest threat to our enemy. When we tap into the Love that’s inside of us and love like Him, we separate ourselves from the world and all that’s in it. Isn’t that what it’s all about? Love. What did Jesus look like? Love. He loved and gave because that’s what love does. It thinks of others first, it helps, it serves, it loves. That’s what I want to look like to others. Boldly loving them into the Kingdom of God.
