God is great! III

Yesterday I wrote about the I AM, today I want to wright about the GREAT I AM.  We as parents want better for our children, a better education, job, not to have to go through everything that we did. We work hard so they can have a better life.  God did the same!  Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign; a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son,  and shall call His Name Immanuel ("God with us".) ISAIAH 7:14 (KJV). For unto us a Child is born, unto us Son is given:  And the Government shall be upon His Shoulder:  and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. ISAIAH 9:6 (KJV)  The first scripture describes the name, the second all that he is.  In the new testament, He says I Am  the Way, the Truth, and the Life no man comes unto the Father but by Me JOHN 14:6 (KJV).  What made me lose the impact of these Scriptures?  When I was a child we would sing the song "oh how I love Jesus,"  after many times of singing it, I still loved Him, but it started to not have the effect that it had the first
time. The same thing happened with how Awesome God is.  If you read our Awesome (part 2)  blog it all started on Sunday with a presentation of I AM before worship.  A fresh new look at the Power of God, His worthiness of our praise, all that He is, all that He wants to be for us, His Grace, His mercies, all fresh and new again.  Pat made a statement that is so true.  We could title everything that we write Awesome.  Did we feel this way all the time?   No.  But the Holy Spirit is doing a new thing in our lives, and we want to share it with you.  He is taking things that were knowledge and putting them into our hearts in a new fresh way.  As we grow in Christ the scripture is still the same, but every time we read it, it has a deeper meaning to it, it's fresh and alive to us.  I remember one morning we were  having a disagreement; I wanted to make my point, Pat said let's pray, I didn't want to, she knew it, but being the good wife that she is she, just started to pray,  Since that time there has been harmony building in our relationship.  Things that we were in disagreement about have changed in our hearts. I must confess Pat was right and I was wrong.  A hard heart had developed in me.  I was having coffee out of a cup that I had since 1986, 26 years, that morning I  it of the lawn table and it broke.  Just as it hit the concrete a small, still, loving voice said, that's what I want to do with your heart.  Until we let him break our hard hearts it's impossible to start to do his will.  The new cup that I use has a thumb print on it it says I'm thumbody. In myself  I'm nobody In Christ I am a child of this Awesome God.  When I started this blog I referred to Jesus as the Great I Am. In finishing I want ask why great?  Think about this He Is God, yet He became human to die on a cross it was His total purpose of coming to earth to redeem mankind, that's AWESOME!!!
