Kaleidoscope

I love kaleidoscopes. As you turn them, they are ever changing. No two are alike, and once it is turned, it will never produce the exact image again.

God is like a kaleidoscope. There are many books about God. In fact, He wrote one that we call the Bible. In it there is much about Him. In the books about God, the authors work hard to describe His attributes, personality, and character. There is much about God in the Bible.

The thing is, we can't fully comprehend God! No matter how hard we try, no matter how much we read, we will fall far short. We could memorize the Bible cover to cover and yet still not fully comprehend God.

I think that's great! It makes life fun. I enjoy constantly discovering new things about God. I love discovering new things in the Bible, through other authors, and in nature. God is infinite and so are the things that we can discover about Him.

Like a great painting, there is something new to discover every time you examine it. Or a place, like the Grand Canyon, there is always something new to notice. That's why you can look at the same passage inthe Bible over and over and learn something new each time (of course the power of the Holy Spirit has a lot to do with that!).

Look every day to discover something new about God. You'll never be disappointed, and your life really will be filled with joy.
