Who is the most incredible in your life? You may say your parents, spouse, children, friend or family. I am blessed when I read this devotional this morning with the title "Too Incredible". In John 3:31 says "The One who comes from above is greater than all.”
The idea that a virgin would be selected by God to bear himself…The notion that God would don a scalp and toes and two eyes…The thought that the King of the universe would sneeze and burp and get bit by mosquitoes…It’s too incredible. Too revolutionary. We would never create such a Savior. We aren’t that daring.
Whom this word refer to? No other than God! When we create a redeemer, we keep him safely distant in his faraway castle. We allow him only the briefest of encounters with us. We permit him to swoop in and out with his sleigh before we can draw too near. We wouldn’t ask him to take up residence in the midst of a contaminated people. In our wildest imagination we wouldn’t conjure a king who becomes one of us.
But God did., Max Lucado said.
No one is greater than our God!

Nobody is beyond to God's power & nobody is beyond his eyes that he cannot see.
Most of all His love is everlasting.
Enjoy God's wonderful blessings!
