be too small

I know but little 
   of God…
I see His   creation
it’s breathtaking   awe
   striking   for its beauty
   its complexity
its unfathomable intricacy.

But my knowing be   as nothing,
   smaller than   a nanoparticle,
but a whiff understand
   of God

I be   too small
and God 
so   unimaginably   vast.

Sam Scott Date: 10/11/2023 12:22:00 AM It is true the enormity of God is, sometimes, overwhelming yet awe inspiring. I believe, and have learned, that God's spirit is just as interested in the small, minute details - the nano-particles and the space in-between. The universe doesn't end with the blackness of space - there is another universe within us. So God is closer to us than we ever dare to imagine :) I love this poetic thought and your beautiful words, Sarah! Login to Reply Sarah Ann Jullion Date: 10/16/2023 6:36:00 PM Thank you Sam! And I agree that we have a universe of God within us. I have heard that God lives us, and of course, if He didn't, we wouldn't be at all. It is an encouraging thought in the lonely times.
