So I was saying, you get to really know these people who are up front figures... Whether they are a pastor, a TV personality, a singer or whomever they are. You do know them to some degree because of their lyric or their public presence. When you are introduced to them you really want to have an exchange but aren't permitted to because they don't know you from Adam. It is strange.

The thing we can learn is that we know God from afar because of his reputation and this wonderful creation that we live in. We can also know him in a two way exchange. There is no reason for us to not know him. He can be known through his word and the personal exchange that happens with the Holy Spirit.

I'm just blabbing but these are some important things for us to remember. A man or a woman is never sufficient to take a place of total prominence in our hearts. Only God can fill a place of preeminence because only he is big enough to respond. A celebrity can't respond to every well-wisher or fan. God is big enough in stature to receive our praise while he is also big enough to respond to our praise and truly appreciate what we have to offer.
