Though God is infinitely far above our ability to fully understand, through the Scriptures He tells us truths about Himself so that we can know Him, and be drawn to worship Him. Take a description of God and meditate on it for a day.
When Moses encountered you, O God, in the burning bush, you instructed him to tell Pharaoh that YHWH - “I AM [who I am]” - sent him. This is your name that speaks of your ultimate independent, self-complete being. LORD Jesus you also used many “I AM” statements to reveal yourself as God, like “I am the bread of life” John 6:35 (NIV). Our proper response is to fall down in fear and awe of you, the One who possesses all authority.
Scripture:
Exodus 3:13-15 (ESV) 13 Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” 14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” 15 God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations.
John 10:7-11 (ESV) 7 So Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
John 14:6 (ESV) Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

God you are beyond measurement - You cannot be defined by size or amount. You have no beginning, no end, and no limits - boundless, timeless, limitless.
Scripture:
Job 11:7-9 (NIV)
7 “Can you fathom the mysteries of God? Can you probe the limits of the Almighty? 8 They are higher than the heavens above—what can you do? They are deeper than the depths below—what can you know?9 Their measure is longer than the earth and wider than the sea.
Psalm 136 (NIV)
1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good.
His love endures forever.
2 Give thanks to the God of gods.
His love endures forever.
3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords:
