Isaiah 46:5. “To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we be like?”
COMPARE. The greatest earthquake known to man with all its latent power Is not even like an indrawn breath to God who with a single word Can make the earth with all its beauty and also a trillion stars Each one unique with its own name, and His infinite power not be stirred.
The morning light impresses me as earth’s beauty comes into view, Even the heat of the sun is felt as darkness gives way to light; But the beauty just displays God’s work as I see each different hue, That reflects the beauty of the Lord Himself who gives to eyes their sight.
Movement comes and I see birds go by and the insects show their life. Men have spent a lifetime trying hard to learn what they think is life’s secret That makes from nothing or from dust so many forms – even man and wife – Not willing to accept the fact in every life form, God holds the key – He made it.
Emotions that come unseen from within are in various ways expressed. A facial expression, a tone of voice, a tear, a word – a touch – Each one expressing in some way – the heart, yet God has far greater blessed – Expressing His love beyond compare, when Christ endured so much.
It is absolutely impossible to compare God with anything, He is so far supreme there is no way found to define The One who stands alone and by Himself has brought all into being – Still, He in indefinable grace makes us heirs saying, “What’s Mine is thine.”
“O eternal God, the Maker and Maintainer of the universe: in no way would I ever try to compare Thee with the limited knowledge that I have. Still, I thank Thee for allowing me to know Thee and for being willing to make me to know and love Thee. Yet far greater, is the knowledge that I have been loved by Thee. I praise and thank Thee for who Thou art and for revealing Thyself to me through Christ. Amen.”
