Universal

Deuteronomy 10:14, “Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD’S thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.”

Morning everyone! Understanding the universal meaning of all things can cause a mind full of distractions and negative feelings and just isn’t worth it! I know everyone has those thoughts of how God can be universal; everywhere at once; all knowing of all things. He is the true God who never gives up on any individual and gives love to bring all creation to become likeminded, balanced, reconciled to Him. What we do need to know is that He doesn’t have a specific location when it comes to His presence, love, grace, protection. He is actually omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent; including His divine holiness, lovingness, eternal, sovereign and just; the creator, redeemer, shepherd, and Father to all mankind. Universal is an understatement when describing our loving God! When we define God, we forget that there is no reason to! What we need to do is to surrender to His love, grace and mercy; trusting Him to provide, guide and protect us through our life’s journey. C.S. Lewis said, “God has infinite attention, infinite leisure to spare for each one of us. He doesn’t have to take us in the line. You’re as much alone with Him as if you were the only thing He’d ever created.” God’s love is universal, never changing and never ending. We as believers have a purpose to answer God’s calling, to love Him, serve others, and to learn to become Christ-like; living life that is pleasing to Him. So, today, tell your thoughts that the universal meaning of God is as He told Moses to tell the Pharaoh and anyone that asked in Exodus 3:14, “And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.” Remember, because God is universal, we are protected, loved, and are His; we are promised eternity with Him after this world is gone.
