Jase had his four month check up today. He went from being 20 inches and in the 15th percentile for height, to being 22.5 inches and in the 20th percentile for height. It’s so amazing to sit back and watch him grow. Each day he is learning new things, grasping objects, swatting toys, rolling over, attempting to sit up, learning to laugh, learning to talk, and recognizing more and more around him. Each milestone is measured by another developmental achievement. Although day to day I almost can’t tell a difference, but when I look back to pictures of him as a newborn it’s almost as if he is a completely different baby. When I watch the videos I recorded of him just beginning to coo and compare them to his loud, constantly babbling self now I am able to measure his growth. I am able to see just how much he has changed.
Just like I am watching Jase discover more and more every day, I discover more and more about God everyday. I discover that I won’t ever fully discover Him. I can’t measure Him because He surpasses all my understanding. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. My concept and knowledge of Him is ever changing and ever growing, but He is never changing. He expands further than what the human mind can comprehend – there is no way to measure His greatness.
In the same way, there is no way to measure His grace.
He is grace.
Grace that we will never comprehend. Grace that we can never measure.
“Who else has held the oceans in his hand?
Who has measured off the heavens with his fingers?
Who else knows the weight of the earth
or has weighed the mountains and hills on a scale?”
