I'M SOOOOO BIG
ILLUSTRATION
“As soon as children are old enough to speak, one of the first questions parents ask is, “How big are you?”
Children seem to always give the same answer, “I’m soooo big!”
They generally raise their hands to get additional stature, as if to say, “I’m huge.
I’m enormous.
There’s no telling how big I may be.”
This is not a scientific answer.
You can’t use it in every context.
For example, if your spouse were to ask, “How big do my hips look to you?” you might not want to throw your hands high over your head and exclaim, “Your hips are soooo big.”
You teach your children to say this because you want them to realize they are growing.
We know that the way they think of themselves matters.
You don’t want them to think of themselves as small, weak, and lacking adequate strength to handle the challenges of life.”
But now I have a more important question: How big is your God? How big is Christ in your life?
