Description While sitting at work the other day, I started thinking about this phrase.

The connotations of it are innumerable, I took what I thought and transformed it into a poem and a wallpaper.

All of which I greatly believe and needed to be reminded of.

Okay... I gotta say, when I first read this I was highly confused, but once I read it about the fifth time, it finally clicked. I actually yelled "OH!", grinned and faved it! Great job!

I read the title and could barely see the closing words in the thumbnail preview and was like "MAN... Debbie really was in a hurry this time!" But then on close inspection (I figgured I would find something redeeming about this...) I really found out that I liked it. One thing that might make it even better is if for the preview you Just put the words "God is Nothing" and then in parenthesis put (Full View)... also explaining the poem in the comments for those who didn't click fullview... just a thought, but might probably be a not good idea - either way I loved it... Each point is so true, you could insert God in each of those.


I read a quote once that said "Nobody's perfect... I'm nobody" You took this idea a whole level and dimension beyond just the goofy t-shirt I read and made it something to praise God!

He is everything and he does what no one can do


Great work.

You are absolutely right, he is way beyond Everything, because he created Everything. Maybe we could say it "God isn't anything [that he created] therefore he is Nothing [that he created]" His glory and power and Love for us is far beyond anything we can ever completely wrap our minds around
