Week 3: Who are you God?

A million images fast forward in my head when I hear the sentence “Nature, Character of God and Father´s heart for us”. I can´t find the words to explain this endless mystery by which I continue to be amazed and intrigued. 

And that was how it begun: a whirlwind of questions and answers we didn´t understand or had. The speaker of this week, Peter, was kind enough to place doubts and questions of subjects I hadn´t really analyzed before.

But one thing, Pete said, was fundamental: Jesus is the son of God. It does not matter how many questions or doubts rise as we engage in conversation, it is elemental to know in a factual manner, that Jesus is the son of God. Because only then we can be able to filter our questions through this statement.

Going back and forth on that subject I couldn´t help but to admire God´s greatness—I know it sounds old “Yeah God is so amazing and vast as the universe and beyond”; but truly He is. Sometimes we go by the smallest things that really speak about his character.

One of those things that struck me was Eclipses. The speaker was just shifting some images of the universe when the collapse of the sun and the moon hit my eye. A perfect moment where these two celestial bodies cross one another in such a perfect way that the sun forms a ring around the moon, and the light that the sun gave to the moon is no longer visible, but instead invisible, forming a perfectly-fit image in the sky.

This really spoke to me about God´s perfect measure. His perfect measure of life, how he carefully takes care of our past, present and future, so that everything will fit, shaping our lives around his purpose, so that He might be glorified and worshiped by us. It´s the perfect fit between the moon and the sun.

This—I´m still trying to understand, but at the same time, strangely intrigues me. The way God moves and how He is just makes me think of a prism. There are so many sides to it, and so many ways you could appreciate it, but He will always project light in whatever position to look at it. 

He is love, justice, righteousness, discipline and much more other qualities merged into one being. I could never cease to know him, but that just increases my desire to follow Him.
