on my mind to blog about.
The first of many is this. Holy.
I love that word. For some reason whenever I hear that my God is a
holy God, I smile. I just think that holy is one of the very best
words to describe him. It means set apart, different. And that meaning
pretty much captures God. He is like us, but so much different. We
were made in His image, yet there is no way that we could ever wrap
our minds around His majesty. His love for us is different, separate, holy. His forgiveness for us is different, separate, holy. God is different, set apart, holy.
And the crazy thing about this word,
holy, is that it's the only word used 3 times in a row to describe our
God. Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty. In the bible, when
something is mentioned twice, you are supposed to be paying attention,
but when something is said 3 times it must be really important. And
holy is the one word repeated 3 times to describe our Loving Father.
He is different, set apart from anything or anyone that we've ever
seen before. But when Sunday rolls around how many of us are thinking,
"My God is a HOLY God!" I know for me, I would always sing the songs
without really thinking about what they meant, or read the words on
the screen not thinking that the God I serve is different. Holy. He is
so awesome and indescribable and we just say holy, holy, holy, as if it
means nothing. But when we dig into what the Bible says and what it
means, the only thing we can do is worship our God more, love Him
deeper, and serve Him better. After all he is a Holy God. Holy.
Separate. Set apart. Different. Holy.
