Big Enough

Ayiesha Woods

I don't wanna box you in
You've been doing big things since the world began
Sometimes I just don't wanna believe
That you're big enough - but you're big enough!

this is a refrain... I think it's great... because I think often of how we try to put God in a nice neat little box... only that means we are constraining him to OUR limitations instead of seeing Him for who is really is...

Too often our ideas of God replace God in our hearts. At least for me, I find myself believing in my understanding of God rather than realizing the my understanding is just my small window on GOD! It's an easy thing to fall into, because we only know what we know, so it makes sense that we'd believe our knowledge of God is God. But, as you wisely point out, God is always more than our categorical boxes. Especially now, 'round Christmas time, when the mind-blowing mystery of the incarnation kicks the legs out from under all of my preconceived ideas of what a God should do. Thanks, as ever, for reminding us that God is God... and that is an amazing thing!
