About This Quote
I believe the glory of God is so great that anything you can say about Him can never do him justice. It's impossible to put into words the greatness of God. People have tried for thousands of years and all they could do was come up with a few words to describe Him. But Scripture assures us that God is beyond anything we can ever say or understand.
