The Big Diehl

My church has a daycare which holds a chapel service for the preschoolers every Thursday afternoon. Last week it was my turn to talk to the kids. As I finished and was leaving, one of the children asked me, “Pastor Adam, how big is God?”

What a question.

I replied to the boy, “Bigger than your imagination.” After thinking about it, I suppose that’s about the best answer I could have given. God really is bigger than any of us could possibly imagine. I am reminded of this especially when I see God work in my life in ways I wouldn’t expect in a million years.

Since I’m talking about it, I’ll take this opportunity to make a “plug” for Michael Gungor’s incredible CD called “Bigger Than My Imagination.” It’s got some very tight music on it, including a rhythmic acoustic guitar rendition of the Doxology. Check it out.
