You don't have a universe

I am sure that everyone who is reading this has heard of the OnePrayer series where churches from around the world can listen to the same messages together through the use of technology. If you haven't, here is a little clip. (If you are reading this within the first few hours after I posted, the video may not be processed by youtube completely yet.)

Well, this week we had a special guest on screen from Simi Valley, California. Francis Chan. With Chan, we explored the topic of God is . . .Strength. Chan made very good points and used many tangible illustrations, but one thing stands out from that message, a quote by an age old pastor, J. Vernon McGhee.
"This is God's universe, and God does things his way. You may have a better way, but you don't have a universe."

I don't know about you, but that says something to me. I guess the point is, if you think that you can do something better than God, go make your own universe then give him a shout. You may think twice then!

Anyways, thanks for reading and peace out.
