My personal world has become a bit smaller, although I must admit that I am able to view places and things which I could never imagine or ever hope to see. We now live in a computer world which brings the whole complex universe into my living room.
No longer can I make trips to faraway places, view castles and cathedrals and eat exotic foods, however, I have become more observant of my own little world and with this comes a greater appreciation of God’s creation. My smaller world allows me to focus on the details of God’s grand designs. My world is both simple and complex…simple because I am more observant of the little things that make up a complex and unique system that composes our universe.
“In the beginning, God created…….” And what a creation it is! This world is the work of a Creative Genius. Not only the obvious things, but the invisible world of atoms, protons, and electrons; like-charges, static electricity, liquids, solids, and gases, and their properties. He invented pressure, volume and mass, weight, boiling points, and absolute zero. God invented light and designed it to bend and diffract. Planet earth had no shape or size but God wanted everything to be perfect before He added the finishing touches. Nature became creativity defined.
But His artistry was just getting warmed up. He sprinkled the sky with millions of lights and placed our earth the exact distance from the sun so that His world would neither freeze nor roast. He wanted everything to be perfection before His final and greatest act of creation……man himself.
Man was created in the very image of God. He gave man a soul, a brain, the power of choice and a heart for loving. God thought of everything but He also knew that man would choose to sin, so He developed a contingency plan. At the appointed time, God himself would be the ultimate giver of His own life to save us. Just proves that God never gives up on us. He still has plans for us.
God is still creating. He creates every day and every day man is discovering more and more of His creative genius. This should give us hope and peace.
So now enjoy this special place called Earth. Its all for you.
