Ha ha! I did it... Now let's see if anyone notices *grin* (those of you out of town don't count, because you can't see me).

Had an interesting thought question in Sunday School this morning... How do you visualize God?

It made me think... I have a hard time attaching a mental picture to God... as I have determined that He is too big to fit in any of my mental boxes, I have never really tired to picture Him. It is enough for me to know He exisits, and to know somehting of His nature. I do not have to know what He looks like. I do, occasionally, like to have a mental picture of someone who I'm talking too... and so, when I am in need of a mental image, I usually picture Jesus. Jesus, being human, is close to something I understand enough to be able to picture. And so I have my little picture of God Incarnate in my head, and I live quite happily most of the time with that.

But if I could picture Him, what would God look like? Only once have I actually attached a mental picture to God Himself... I had a dream where I saw God... or rather, I saw part of His foot... it more than filled the sanctuary at Southwood Pres. in Huntsville. It was an interesting dream... brought on, I'm sure, by falling asleep while reading Isaiah. As to what the rest of God looks like... we will have to wait on that one. Any idea I could come up with would be purely in my own mind...
