Pastor's Reflection for the day

God's omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence mean that He is both deep within us and far beyond us. We can limit the actions of God in our life by seeking and acknowledging only those aspects of God that are within ourselves -- the things that we can see, touch, smell, taste, hear, and comprehend. When we perceive God only in terms of our life on earth and discoveries of the universe we have been able to explore through science, we confine God's omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence to the capacities of humankind. But God is far greater. In faith and in prayer, we can avail ourselves of the Divine reality that lies beyond self, and become open to experiencing the infinite potential of God. Speaking to God in prayer can be an opportunity to reach out for what appears to be miraculous in our human understanding.
