For the world to believe

SUMMARY: Sometimes we limit God to fit our own understanding, but God cannot be measured. We need to work tirelessly to help the world believe in His power and majesty. We must love the lost and seek them out, be united as Christians, and bear witness to the love of God. Our theological definition must be accompanied by humility and meekness. The world will come to believe. Our God is too big to be limited by our understanding.

Sometimes we act as if the God we have is tiny. There is a precious praise of a Latin worshiper who, as if God himself were speaking to the listener, asks God, what image are you going to make of me if you don't know my measurements?

The first time I heard that, I remembered the many altars where I myself accommodated the gods - which I once worshiped - to the dimensions of the atrium made by human hands. I never tire of enjoying my Christ and giving him gratitude for what he did for me. Yes, our God has no measures; there is no rod, nor elbow that can measure it. He broke all the molds of human imagination and there is no exact measure to calculate his fullness. But this is not enough as a concept; you have to work tirelessly for the world to believe.
