Joh 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.
The world itself could not contain the books that should be written about Jesus and the things He did. Think about it, take a moment and really think. We can't imagine anything so numerous can we? Something in such great amount the world cannot contain it. Think about how huge the oceans are, how numerous the grains of sand, there isn't anything we can fully realize that the world cannot contain, perhaps our imagines can stretch to realize planets that are bigger than earth so the earth could not contain such a thing, but can we really imagine something so numerous the earth could not contain it? Books in such a number that the WHOLE earth could not hold them?
We've many autobiographies, in fact we all could write one couldn't we? We could tell our tales and in that autobiographer we would highlight the special events that made up our life. We wouldn't put down every detail most likely because we couldn't remember them. Some people right in journals daily giving such details of their lives and yet those details wouldn't even begin to fill up enough books so the earth couldn't contain them.
Jesus was a man of many actions, a man of many deeds. We read of only a snippet of the things He did, the miracles He performed, the life He led, the people He affected.
The precious insights we are given are to be cherished, they are to be studied, they are to be committed to our hearts and memories. May God bless us as we read His Holy Word, as we learn of Jesus, of the plan of salvation for one and all. May we keep His love and mercy ever before us as we seek forgiveness, repenting of our sins and grasping hold of Jesus' grace and righteousness.
Amen.
