28 " ...Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin,
29 yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these."
(Matthew 6:28–29)
24 “Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world."
(John 17:24)
There has not been a more pressing topic on my heart over the past couple of months than the one we discuss on this episode. During one of my morning readings I read the above from Matthew 6. When I reflected on it I began to think on all the ways the LORD GOD looks at creation. I thought of a painting done by an artist using only dots (see it here). There are roughly 6.4 million dots in this painting. The closer you get the less of the picture and more of the individual dots come into view. But back away and their appears a beautiful piece of art. That's when I thought about how GOD sees EVERYTHING in EVERY dimension all at the same time. I thought of the new space images from the new space telescope. I thought of sub atomic particles and I was left unable to grasp the sheer magnitude. But then I went on to think about GOD hearing prayers etc...and I could not wrap my arms around it.
But, then I asked, "Why?" Why create? If GOD is GOD and is perfectly content within HIMSELF why would HE create? GOD doesn't need more glory does HE?
Tune in on this episode and discover why GOD created. Once you understand why you then can begin to see the Scriptures in a brighter light!
Once you are finished with the podcast listen to this sermon by a Jewish pastor.
You will find out something so phenomenal that comes from Genesis 1:1.
Grace and peace friends.
