limitless

i have so many limits.
and i HATE to admit it, because i'm always fighting them.

i wish i could run furthur and faster, but i have limits and can only go so far and so fast.
i wish my house was cleaner, but i have limits.
i wish i could get more done, but i have limits - i have to sleep sometime.

some phrases have been jumping out to me the last couple days about God and his limitlessness (i know, it's not a word!) and i'm so thankful.

i'm so thankful that He has no limits.
first of all, He can NOT be with any sin. none. not even a little. He has NO limit for sin.
but once He has redeemed you, and you are His...then...oh, then...
His limitless grace is there. LIMITLESS...
and His limitless mercy.
and His limitless patience...with me...and to give to me for my day...
and His limitless strength.
and His limitless goodness...even through the tragedies of this world.

i'm feeling my limits.
in this body.
in this fallen world.
and it makes me appreciate and KNOW what a great God i serve.
that has no limits.

and yet loves me LIMITLESSLY with all my limits.
