The Great One.

Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable. Psalm 145.3

Hockey season is nearly here! My Red Wings jersey has been spotted in the far reaches of my closet, the official Red Wings app is released and tickets go on sale tomorrow! It’s a good time of the year. My memories return like the fall air and I sense that this season will be much greater than the last.

Of all sports to ever boast of a single individual via a nickname, I can think of no higher nickname than “The Great One.” Wayne Gretsky is the greatest hockey player ever to live, and yet if you search through his stats, if you watch his replays, if you find official game worn memorabilia, you will find an end to his greatness.

With God, his greatness is unsearchable. It’s not even possible to catalog his exploits. There is no trading card printer who can print each statistic even if you had all the paper in the world. YouTube can’t contain his highlight reels, fan videos, and episodes. It won’t fit into the longest Sports Center or dedicated HD Channel.

My God is the ONLY true Great One!
