Think about the resources, the time and the thought that has
gone into some of the conveniences we enjoy today, from microwaves to I-phones,
from airplanes to driving our own cars. To think God created us to be able to
create, to build, to invent, to discover so many new and improved ideas and
inventions.
Imagine the
thoughts and ways of our God! It is impossible, as we know from this verse in
Isaiah:
“For your
thoughts are not my thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the
Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than
your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9
I simply can’t
comprehend how anyone can believe that the universe just “happened” into being
by some random cosmic force. The design of each tree, the color and shape and
variety of each flower, the koala bear’s nose, the bunnies ears, the horse’s
hoof, the zebra’s stripes, the giraffe’s neck, the lion’s mane, the flow of the
streams to the rivers, to the magnitude of the ocean, the majesty of the
mountains, the uniqueness of each individual human, each individual snowflake, the
miracle of birth, one heart beat as blood cells, veins and arteries course
through our bodies.
When we sit and
concentrate on all of creation, we know there has to be a grand design, a plan,
a Creator and He is God of all. Jesus is
the heart of all we see, taste, touch, feel and hear. Listen to these two
verses about our Lord.
Through
Him all things were made. Without Him, nothing was made that has been made.
John 1:3
“All things?” Everything
created around us is because of Him. Amazing! Praise him as you look around.
Appreciate the breath of life today, the birds and the trees, the rocks and the
seas, all because of Him.
Father,
Thank You for Your thoughts and Your ways, so much higher than
our own. You give us much more than we can hope for or imagine. Keep us filled
with gratefulness for each day on this earth, the works of Your hands.
In Jesus name,
Amen
