That star(๐—Œ๐—Ž๐—‡)? Its orbiting in the middle of a galaxy at 155.3 miles per second.

And that Milky Way galaxy is speeding around the universe at 372.8 miles per second.

If youโ€™ve made it to reading this line at average pace, you have already traveled a bit over 1864 miles, ๐—ƒ๐—Ž๐—Œ๐— ๐—๐—๐—‚๐—…๐–พ ๐—’๐—ˆ๐—Žโ€™๐—‹๐–พ ๐—Œ๐—‚๐—๐—๐—‚๐—‡๐—€ ๐—๐—๐–พ๐—‹๐–พ.

And even if you feel like youโ€™re small compared to the speed of the universe, God wants to meet you right where you are, whether you are sitting still or traveling 1864 miles per minute.

God isnโ€™t limited.

God isnโ€™t stuck.

God is author and finisher, creator of time and space. If youโ€™ve lived your life feeling stuck, please understand the God of the universe isnโ€™t. ๐—›๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ.
