No word God

We serve a great God. No, not a great God, an awesome and mighty God. No, not an awesome and mighty God, a no word God. There are no words to describe our God. We try, but we fail. Who can describe the God who created the universe by the words of His mouth? Who can put a definition to the God who holds the oceans in the palm of his Hand? Who can define the God who tells each star where to stand, how bright to shine, and knows each by name? No one can.

We serve a God who deserves our everything. He gave His everything, so why shouldn't we? He is so great that we can't hold Him in our minds. We try, but He is too big. He had no beginning and has no end. How can we comprehend this? We simply can't. If we did, we would have Him in a nutshell and He wouldn't be a mystery anymore. Our God is like a rubix cube that no one can figure out. He's the most difficult one of them all. We try, and when we think we have Him figured out, we find out that we are wrong, and have to try again. But in all reality, we should just give up the puzzle, and let Him remain just that: a puzzle.

I have tried to put God in a box, but He doesn't fit. He's too big and too great for a box. It's not where He belongs. I have tried to define God, but I can't. He has no definition. There is none that would suit Him or that would be completely correct. There is no word in the English dictionary that could define our God. He is a no word God.

And that's just the way He is. And that's what I have for Him: no words.
