In my dream I was going to college. I knew I did not have a heavy class load. I told a classmate it was nice to be in a place where I could take elective classes. I said I would like to take a class that studied the limits of human imagination.
We human beings are “fearfully and wonderfully made!” I am often astonished at the creativity and innovations that we, the children of dust, are capable of. How does that wiz kid get all those answers? Where did that inventive idea come from? Where did that creativity for solving that enigma descend from?
Being created in the image of God puts us ahead of rocks and trees and things. What potential God instilled in us! Do you think he ever takes delight in our pushing the limits of human imagination? I do!
God can do over and above our most fantastic imaginations! We know this from passages like Ephesians 3:20-21.
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more
than all we ask or imagine,
according to his power that is at work within us,
to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus
throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.”
God can more than trump any of our amazing constructs with His creative genius.
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him”-
but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.
What limits do you suppose our Lord has put on your imagination? What happens when He allows us to tap into His?
