1 Corinthians 1:25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
Think of the wisest human you know of. To think that compared to God they are foolish, and the strongest person that you can imagine is a total wimp compared to God. That is not just because God is wiser and stronger but because God's strength and wisdom is beyond our comprehension. One of the reasons people struggle with the greatness of God is that they try to understand Him in human understanding. But, His omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, omnibenevolence and sovereignty are beyond our human understanding. We can say that He is all knowing, present everywhere, all powerful and all good as well as having all authority over all creation but we can't really comprehend what that really means. For me that means that I accept it to be true in faith and that I understand that to whatever degree I can comprehend it is infinitely more than that. That is how I can trust Him completely. This one verse says so much more than what it says.
Our God is greater!!
