You and I are governed. The weather determines what we wear, gravity dictates our speed, and health determines our strength. We may change these forces, alter them slightly, but we never remove them.
God, however, is an unchanging God, an uncaused God, and an ungoverned God. He doesn’t check the weather; he makes it. He doesn’t defy gravity; he created it. He isn’t affected by health, since he has no body. Jesus said, “God is spirit.” And since God has no body, he has no limitations—he’s equally active in Cambodia as he is in Connecticut.
“Where can I go to get away from your Spirit?” asked David. God unchanging, God uncaused, God ungoverned. Only a fraction of God’s qualities, but aren’t they enough to give you a glimpse of your Father?
