 Can You Fathom The Mysteries of God?

Can you probe the limits of the Almighty?

They are higher than the heavens above you!

They are deeper than the depths below!

Their measure is longer than the earth and wider than the sea!

JOB 11:7-9

The Mariana Trench is the deepest point in the earth’s oceans. It’s maximum known depth is 6.85 miles. To contrast: If Mount Everest (the world’s tallest mountain 29,029 ft.) were placed at the bottom of the Trench, there would be over a mile of water above it! Two people, Jacques Piccard and Donald Walsh, dived 10,915 meters in a navy bathyscaphe in 1960. No one has ventured deeper.

There are rewards and obstacles to Diving Deeper.

It takes courage and intentional planning.

It takes a certain “fitness”, equipment and surface support.

[Tweet “Diving Deep into God’s #mysteries takes #courage and #determination. #Seek1st”]

Unlike the Cave of Confusion, where I stumbled into the dark pit, confused and unaware of how I got there, I began to see the need in my life to take the risk and Dive Deeper. By this I mean, I had questions about God and life and satan and why things happened, and to get questions answered you have to take a risk to ask them.

[Tweet “The turning point in knowing #God is #pursuing Him to the ends of the earth. #Seek1st”]

 

Armed with the right equipment (the Bible), equipped with my oxygen supply (prayer), I also co-ordinated my surface support. (anointed teaching and preaching and trusted Christians walking in the faith longer than I had)

I think I started “Diving” thinking I would find ALL my answers.

NOPE. 🙂

He takes us from glory to glory and deep unto deep but we can never comprehend or reach the fullness of His wisdom.  Isn’t that wonderful?

But what I found – what you’ll find- is a new, previously undiscovered world, of wealth and riches.

Hi, I’m Cindy- 35 years of “livin” with my prince charming, Jeff. I’m a home maker, not a house wife, parent of 7, memory maker, mama bear, Nana to 11 & counting, Pastor’s wife and I’m daily amazed by the depths of God’s love.

I love reading, home schooling, encouraging others, playing the piano, worshiping, dating my husband, and planning parties and retreats for our clan. Someday, I really want a horse and learn to play the cello and viola.
