A child encounters the supremely Supreme

God is great. Supremely great. The close-up perspective of an ant and the far-above perspective of an eagle only hint at God's limitless knowledge. His power as boundless.

God is good. Supremely good. God=love. He is just and kind and patient and merciful. The Fruit of the Spirit points to its Source. To think on everything that's true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and good is to examine Him.

Let us thank Him. To give thanks is to relate. How incomprehensible is the privilege of relating with the supremely great, supremely good God; to know He cares for every creature and He cares for me, His child.
