People today discount God; who He is, was, and will forever be. As many of you know I live in a beautiful mountain area where I see His handiwork everywhere. Yet there are some people who try to humanize and limit God in terms they can wrap their minds around. Therefore we tend to cut God up into little bits we can swallow. But expand you mind for a moment.
God is the one who began the creation of earth with just a simple sentence, “Let there be light.”
A few verses later, with one hand he was forming the giant fish for the sea and with the other hand we was making the hollow bones for the hummingbird and placing the miniature feathers of the wings. More exciting it was not just a one off creature but was every creature in the water and on the land.
I'd like to think that he did all the rest of creation as practice for His best work. In Genesis 1:26 God made man. Then in Genesis 2:21 He made woman, not to be in front of or behind but beside Adam. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
If you have read the Bible you can see how man got too big for it's britches and would not keep the things God asked of man. Being part of the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) I am sure Jesus know from the start that he would have to come down to save us from ourselves. Then Jesus spent 30 years here to give us hope and direction. But then the religious leaders became afraid of Jesus and did not see Him as a part of God. They wanted their power so bad that they did want they could to eliminate His free speech to the people.
They lied about Him and set Jesus up to death. I love the words of this old song of how Jesus noted how much He loved us and how He was here for the people then, now, and in the future. Listen to this great Dallas Holm song that says it all! Rise Again
May you have a Blessed Easter and just take a moment to appreciate how wonderful the creator of the Universe is so that we can have an everlasting relationship with Him.
