Psalm 139:7-10
7 Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
9 If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 even there your hand shall lead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
9 If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 even there your hand shall lead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
Doesn't matter where you go or which way you turn, no one can hide from the glory of God. All around you are the signs: majestic trees that grow green and sturdy, a variety of beautiful animals, insects and sea life and of course what lies beyond this planet, in the void of space. Did you know that if the planet earth was moved in the slightest from its projected course around the sound, we could either freeze to death or burn up?
It's hard to fathom that there is a God that thinks of our well being and wants the best for us, but nothing in this world stands at mere chance. As a matter of fact, scientists love to try and disprove the existence of God, but one thing can be said to quell most of this rambling: every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Science is deeply rooted in cause and effect. Without one, there could not be the other. So, knowing that the universe had to have been created, the there must have been a creator. Science indeed says that such is a FACT and not CONJECTURE. Some want to call it the Big Bang, but there must have been something that did the banging, right?
God is omniscient, forever present beyond our senses. We cannot perceive him in our current state, except through prayer and meditation. Even then, we can never "see" him as we see one another. However, people, in their own arrogance, refuse to humble themselves before God an imply that we should. They say that God cannot exist, because why would he put us here? It's such a terrible place! Unfortunately, the arrogant will always refuse to prostrate themselves before God, and true comprehension is lost. God put us here to bring us closer to him We inflict pain and trouble on one another at an alarming rate.
I won't be a fool. God is all around us. In the clouds of the sky, in the plants of the fields and in the face of that person you hold so dear to your heart.
Be Blessed. Amen.
