Have you crossed the bridge to knowing who is the Creator?Today's Scripture:
From the time the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky and all that God made. They can clearly see his invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing God.
Romans 1:20
The Milky Way, the Great Barrier Reef, the northern lights, the miracle of birth...the universe is filled with wonders that humans cannot replicate on their own, wonders that humans cannot replicate on their own, wonders that point to the existence of Someone as Creator. People disagree over who this Creator is and whether he is actively involved in the world today. Yet the intricacy, orderliness, and sheer awesomeness of the natural world confirm what the human heart has felt since the dawn of time - there is more to this life than meets the eye.
What is visible proclaims the existence of something invisible.
Some people have rejected or forgotten this truth, but that doesn't make it any less true.
~I can still remember and picture the day my daughter Madeline was born and I took her into my arms...I went to church that next Sunday to share the joy with my congregation and as we sang "He Touched Me" I wept knowing yes He truly touched me. ~
Paul discussed in his letter to the Romans how people knew God was there but did not thank him or give glory to him for what he'd done. They chose instead to go their own foolish ways. The good news is that God is real. His fingerprints are everywhere, and you can understand more about who he is by simply studying what he's made.
Knowing about God's character is not the same thing as knowing him. However, recognizing there is a God is the first step in seeking him. Through the wonder of creation, God has left no room for any one's choosing to do anything less.
Selah people' and friends you can make the truth found in Romans more real to you by exploring the world around you, thereby discovering new things about God's character in your community, in your home and yes in your heart. Praise God for everything you learn.
"Peace be with you as you discover the Creator and share his love by grabbing someone today and telling them just how much God loves them."
