How vivid is your imagination?
Can you
see God creating the universe, sprinkling the sky with stars, anchoring
the sun and moon in their respective positions to give us light and
provide us with health?
Can you see Him scooping out the rivers and seas and building up mountains that we would have water and protection?
Can you see Him thoughtfully providing seed--for every flower, vegetable, plant and tree that we would have sustenance and shade and continuation?
Can
you see Him insightfully, carefully, thinking about the formation of
man--every vital organ in place doing exactly what He intended them to
do that our blood would flow, cells renew, limbs would work, eyes would
see, ears would hear, tongues move to speech and praise, digestion
system process food, hearts would pump, lungs inhale and exhale
air/separating oxygen and all we need to breathe?
Now, can you see Him looking down on all His work--knowing from the foundation--what mankind would do--to destroy everything He had made and yet He says--"It is good!"?
Think
about your own life. As much as He loves us, as much as He wants us to
have all good things, as much as He wants to spare us misery, trials,
and tribulations, He knows exactly when we will mess up, time and time
again, but He loves us enough to provide us a way out--through Jesus
Christ. And He knows who will accept Him, believe Him, and who will
reject Him--from the foundation of the world-and yet He was willing to
sacrifice Himself for all who believe!
He
has known from the time He envisioned us when we would fall and when we
would rise again with wisdom and knowledge--understanding and insight
as to how to truly live for Him and from the foundation--He has never
given up on us! He is yet providing a way out--from all ungodliness and
unrighteousness into a right relationship with Him. Open your heart and
mind and accept what He has planned for you--from the foundation!
Hallelujah!
