Oftentimes, we think of God as beyond us. God created the cosmos, a million galaxies spiraling into infinity. God is perfect. We are not. We are like ants. Why would God care about us? God is the Beyond. This is true.
The problem with this view is that something is missing. God is intimate too. God didn’t just create the magnaverse. God created the microverse too. Einstein once said that if you look at the inside of an atom, the nucleus is like the sun and electrons, like planets orbiting it. There are vast distances of space between atoms just like there are between solar systems. There are even more vast distances between galaxies. The microverse is like a mini-universe. God knows every little detail just like God knows the great aspects of the magnaverse. God knows what very cell in your body is doing right now, every thought you’ve ever had, are having now, or will have in the future. God knows a million things about us we don’t know.
But not only does God know us better than we know ourselves, God cares. It is a theological fact, because God is Infinite Love, that God has to love us infinitely more than we can love ourselves! God wants us in Heaven infinitely more than we want to be there ourselves. God wants us to be eternally happy even more than we can want this. God not only knows the truest desire of our heart, but wants to exceed it. The truest desire of our heart is Love. God is that Love. If we believe with our heart and soul, God will not only fulfill our desire, God will exceed it.
God is like a Mother. To not turn to God for help would be like refusing to go a Person who loves us more than ourselves and wants something better for us than even we can want. We would be fools. Let us then turn to God daily. God is our spiritual Mother. God is Infinitely Beyond, it’s true. Yet God loves us with an Infinitely, Intimate Love too.
