Making God as small as we are

If we only look at the law
the words of scripture
if we don’t look within
counseled by the Spirit
what will we miss of God
what profound truth
all that God is
beyond our comprehension
so much more to say
beyond the time of Jesus
what was recorded, written down
what God has to say to us
God divine, all powerful
omnipresent, alive
if we try to wall him in
thinking we have figured all of this out
making God as small as we are
applying a human scale to the infinite
we miss out on such a blessing
