God's Greatness Is Beyond Our Ability To Completely Describe

Whenever we try to describe God we are doing so in a limited way. It’s not that we are incapable of knowing God and knowing true things about Him. We can know Him.  And we can know true things about Him. However, we are still limited by the fact that He is always greater than our minds can completely comprehend. No matter how great we conceive God to be, He is actually greater than our conception.

That’s an interesting idea to ponder, huh?

Also, His greatness, His majesty and His glory are always beyond any words we can use in our attempts to describe Him. Our words can be helpful but, ultimately, they fall short.

However, we do not have to view these limitations in a negative way. This is actually a good thing. These limitations can serve to remind us of the awesomeness of this amazing God. And just think: this is the One who loves us and created us in His image!
