God Is Great

The other day I was singing the lyrics of a song and then all of a sudden I was struck by the words and their meaning.

Superhuman - Andy Mineo
I am not a star,
I'm just a product of grace that's still in the process,
and I don't gotta be great, because my God is,

Andy Mineo is trying to say to his fans that being a man who stands on a stage and sings to a crowed of people doesn't make him a superhero. Our worth isn't a result of what we can do that can produce money and fame. Our worth and greatness is found in Christ.

The really cool thing about Christianity is that we don't have to be anything, actually we aren't anything. None of us have any worth on our own, our worth is in Christ. Plus because God never changes, we never have to worry about whether or not He is great enough.

I find this truth to be every reliving because I now realize that I don't have to become something I never can be. I don't have to be a superhero because my God is greater than any superhero. I'm actually so bad that I'm still being fixed up and forgiven by God through His amazing grace.

God is glorified by my failures, because when I mess up it just shows how much better and great my God is. God is great isn't some cliché thing that all Christians say at dinner time, the truth is that God is truly profoundly great.
