speechless

steven curtis chapman is truly a blessed man with great gifts from God.

the chorus from his song "great expectation" amazes and challenges me at the same time.

Believe the unbelievable
Receive the inconceivable
And see beyond my wildest imagination
Lord, I come with great expectations

we live in a miracle-less society and our (my) view of God has diminished to something soo small that i attempt to contemplate the ends of His existence. thinking of God as something to be figured out, to be completely comprehended, i approach my faith with cockiness and a selfish goal (to feel moral, to attain eternal life). but this song brings me to my knees in utter awe and fear, to be loved by a God that is unbelievable and inconceivable is in itself also unbelievable and inconceivable.
