Exceeds man's might: that dwells with the gods above.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The divine is perhaps that quality in man which permits him to endure the lack of God.
Nearer the gods no mortal may approach.
When the vastness of God meets the restriction of our own humanity, words can't hold it. The best we can do is find the moments that rhyme with this expansive heart of God.
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, Or what's a heaven for?
And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods?
The Son of God became man so that we might become God.
Limited in his nature, infinite in his desire, man is a fallen god who remembers heaven.
God has put within our lives meanings and possibilities that quite outrun the limits of mortality.
The divine is not something high above us. It is in heaven, it is in earth, it is inside us.
There is a god within us.
