Infinity
My Soul is thirsting for God the living GodThe Stream of life, the river, the constant watersOur hope, our refreshing, the infinite, realityHow can I approach to Him and drinkOne who is limited and finite, an earthen vesselExcept He who is infinite dwells in me
How can I touch Him, the consuming fire?How can I see His face and live?If I touch Him I would be consumed in an instantIf I see His face My heart would fail in aweYet he took bodily form, in the form of His SonGod, who is infinite, dwelling in flesh
The words which compare Him to our limitationsEverlasting, Unbounded, Unchangeable, PerfectAlmighty, Unfathomable, Uncompromising, TimelessAll the things I am notYet through the blood of Christ, the blood of the new covenantGod who is infinite dwells in meSo if we have God in our lives- the infinity- what does that do to us?

NOTES:How many words we use to describe God compare to our limitationsEverlasting- he wont deteriorate with time, does not need preservative- we doUnbounded- He isn't limited by boundaries- we areUnchangeable- He doesn't change like the seasons or the weather- we doPerfect- with no flaws- we have many flawsTimeless- without beginning or end, past, present and future do not exist, they do for usAlmighty- the greatest might there is- there is none stronger, we have limited strengthUnfathomable- Deeper than we could ever know, a fathom being as wide as we can grasp with out stretched armsHe is infinite unbounded unchangeable, perfect
References:Deu 6:4 `Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one Jehovah; and thou hast loved Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and these words which I am commanding thee to-day have been on thine heart, and thou hast repeated them to thy sons, and spoken of them in thy sitting in thine house, and in thy walking in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up, and hast bound them for a sign upon thy hand, and they have been for frontlets between thine eyes, and thou hast written them on door-posts of thy house, and on thy gates. [Youngs Literal translation]Gal 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.Joh 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.Gen 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.Exo 33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.1Jo 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) that which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.1Ti 6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
