The heavens declare the glory of God, and the expanse proclaims the work of his hands.
Psalm 19:1, CSB
God is our Creator and Savior, freeing us from worry by knowing that the universe itself shows His faithfulness and power.
Do you not know? Do you not hear? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in
Isaiah 40:21-22, ESV
At Advent, we look back at why Jesus had to come, that He came, and then that He will come again.
Our sins have stacked up to heaven, deeper and more vile than we could know.
We think that our sin will go unnoticed by God, that there isn’t really anything He can do against us.
We think that God is impotent, powerless, and unable to hold us accountable for our sin. This is evidenced in the way we live, how we talk, what we do, ignoring His ways, saying “He’ll forgive me” or “I can do what I want.”
But this is the God who can create everything from nothing, hold everything together and within His hands, and stretches out the univers with those same hands.
Yes, we are basically nothing compared to Him, but God intimately knows every part of His Creation, from the farthest flung stars to our innermost thoughts.
He knows how the cosmos work, and He knows our every sin, our every rebellion against Him.
We therefore prepare ourselves by admitting we don’t understand as much as we think we do, turning to our Creator and Savior who became our example and demonstrated His vast power over our own vast stubbornness.
May we seek the Lord who has no reason to consider us, yet He still lavishes His love and grace on and in us.
When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?
Psalm 8:3-4, ESV
Our God is capable of doing anything, having created a vast universe with only His words to demonstrate His power and glory.
Therefore, we have hope that He can save us and give us eternal life, especially as He raised Jesus from the dead.
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.
Psalm 19:1-2, ESV
There is no reason to deny God exists. Creation itself makes it clear there is a Creator.
Seek the One Who is knows how to make and sustain this vast cosmos.
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Psalm 19:1, ESV
There is no reason to not believe in God. Creation itself points to a Creator.
The wise will find their way, also, to the Son of God.
