Last week, I posted some thoughts about the Messiah.  The very day that I did that, my sister sent me an Advent devotional entitled Behold Your God! Daily Reflections on Messiah.  Each day of Avent, the author reflects on the Scriptural lyrics of this magnificent work.  Take Isaiah 40: 12, for example.  I am reading it in an entirely new light.  Isaiah says “Here is your God.  He is such a big God, that he can comfort His people”>>>>

He has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand,
    and with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens.
He has held the dust of the earth in a basket,
    and weighed the mountains on the scales
    and the hills in a balance.
¹³ Who can fathom the Spirit^[d] of the Lord?

What an incredible God-thing to get this devotional right after I posted about the Messiah! I am excited to know that there is something in this study that the Lord wants me to understand.
