Just me trying to be honest with God.

Immortal, Invisible

“Am I a God near at hand,” says the LORD, “And not a God afar off? …Do I not fill heaven and earth?” says the LORD. Jer23.23-24 NKJV

How can one measure the glory of all that is invisible. The air we breathe is unseen. The soul too is beyond sight. Both come from God, who likewise is hid from our eyes. And, though unseen each is manifest in wondrous ways. Wind announces the movements of air. A person who ponders life affirms the specter of the soul and all the processes of heaven and earth declare the presence of the invisible God.
The Hebrew word for soul also translates, breath. And so, we have an invisible soul declaring its presence in the body by breathing invisible air and all sustained by an invisible God.
It is no wonder that we walk by faith and not by sight and that we find comfort in word such as these ''...and though you have not seen Him, you love Him...'' 1Pet.1.8

“Immortal, invisible, God only wise in light inaccessible hid from our eyes. Most blessed, most glorious the ancient of days; Almighty, victorious, Thy great Name we praise.”
