God is great

The kids sometimes get into pretty deep conversations about God.... who He is and what exactly He can do. Carly was going into a long explanation about what all God could do if He really wanted to. Isaac, of course, was her audience, taking it all in.

Normally, when an explanation is understood, the listener repeats what was just explained. This case was no different.


Isaac answered Carly with all seriousness: "Yeah. If God wanted a weed to grow out of the top of my head, He could do that. And then He could cut it off if He wanted to."

Carly continues her talk.

Isaac answers, "Yep, and He could even make my head be made out of dirt."

Deep.



Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him. He measures the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span. He weighed the mountains in scales. Do you now know? Do you not hear? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers. Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable (Isaiah 40).


"Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created" (Revelation 4:11).

  1. That's really sweet! About the seed growing out of Isaac's head.

    Love the Scriptures on God's greatness. I need to keep that in the forefront of my mind more. It changes the way we live.
