Please help me understand Philippians 2:6

[IanGE]

I don’t disagree with any of this, and consider myself born again when I made my confession of 37 years.

Every time I pray, I start off by placing myself in God’s presence by recognizing that he surrounds me like water surrounds a fish or air surrounds a bird, that he is in heaven listening to my words and my thoughts and knows them before I think them, and that he is inside of me, just as he promised.

-Tim-

Dear Lord, Tim: you take me back to my very first encounter with God, not long after I was Born Again in 1981. Minding my own business in my sitting room I suddenly had a vision of Jesus, standing before a gate in a walled garden, as in Holman Hunt’s painting. He opened the door and ushered me through but I was reluctant to leave Him. He insisted, so I entered. I was immediately aware that I was in the centre of a VAST presence, then aware That someone in Tokyo or on Mars would also feel he was in the middle of God. Previously I had a mathematical understanding of infinity as the figure of 8 symbol, meaning that Macrocosm went round in a Vast circle, eventually returning to travel as microcosm in another, lower, circle before returning. But this “infinity” which surrounded me went on and on and on in all compass directions - NEVER ENDING! I was aware that every emotion, experience, piece of knowledge that I ever had was multiplied in this Being to the power of this new meaning of infinity. I was also aware that I not only could but HAD TO put my total trust in this Being, this God. As a child I was taught to, and did, FEAR God, but now all I could feel was enormous love and comfort.
The very next day God came and sat on the arm of my chair and said, “tell Me about it, Son, and by the way, call Me Abba!” I wept as I considered that that VAST all-powerful, all-mighty, all-everything incomprehensible God had condensed Himself into a Being that my tiny mind COULD comprehend! Praise, praise, PRAISE God!
