“My thoughts are completely different from yours…And my ways are far beyond anything you can imagine.” —–Isaiah 55:8

I remember the sassy Cito Beltran once said, ‘God is not a god of moderation.’ Based on this perspective, he imagines having a large tank of sharks for an ‘aquarium’ in his home.

These words can never be truer (except the preference for sharks). Most often, we become so accustomed to earthly portions that we fail to see the magnitude of hefty heavenly helpings.

God is a god who is more than enough. He never did something that isn’t jaw dropping or mind boggling. He always did things extraordinarily. If our heavenly Father, then, is of such nature, then why are we—his very own children—often asking for the mundane? Without thinking much of it, we settle to ask for what we think God can give, instead of focusing on God’s perspective of giving.

What is really the magnitude of his generosity anyway? Well, the Bible says that since God did not spare his own Son for us, how much more will he, along with him [Jesus] freely give us all things (Romans 8:32)?

ALL things.

Everything.

Nothing moderate in that!
