Imagine standing at the
foot of Everest,
telling it to bend down to see its peak.
Would it oblige and show
its highest point?
Of course not!
Imagine standing on the shore
of the Pacific,
telling it to rise up to see its deepest floor.
Would it indulge and reveal
its lowest point?
Certainly not!
Imagine standing beneath
the fullest moon,
telling it to come near to see its craters.
Would it engage and bare
its deepest basin?
Definitely not!
Is it any different trying
to pull God down,
telling Him to talk face-to-face?
Is it any different looking
up into the sky,
telling God He’s not really there?
Is it any different knowing
God is real,
telling
Him we can do this on our own?
You know the answer,
But unlike mountains, seas
and moons,
God stepped down
from His throne as maker of all,
God listens to our cries
and they indeed break His heart,
God Himself paid for our
sins
and endured our punishment.
God's not so small.¹
