In wonder (1)

Genesis 1: 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

When you think of God, about who He is and what He has done, we will be short of words. Because God is always there, our understanding is over. We cannot understand that, but we do not have to understand that either. When we want that, we make the faith very difficult. Because then we want to understand and we cannot.

The Bible begins with: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. There was apparently no heaven yet and there was no earth. There was nothing at all. Maybe that's the black hole we hear so much about. The black hole from then there was nothing. For once God began, he went on. When He saw how good everything was, He made even more. And it was all good!

So the start was all good! God created the light when there was no sun and no moon. God later created the sun, moon and stars. And he just did that out of nothing. But there it did not stop. He made a difference between land and water. He made the flowers, trees and plants. He made the birds, fish and animals and of course, the crown of creation: man. And God saw that it was good.

Now take such a God into your mind and let him work on you. Without all that has happened after creation. When we look at God and so pure to that God who created everything, we can only admire and wonder. Because who can create an animal? Complete? Who designed life and developed everything so that the whole nature connects and needs each other?

Look at the details in nature: the water that always stays in a cycle. From sea water to clouds, to rain, to river and weather to sea. The water never gets up! But also to the human and animal body. Everything has been thought of: digestion, breathing, moving and even thinking. It is all in agreement. And in animals it is equally well-matched. And so there are many examples. And God created it! We do not even have to discuss a discussion because something like that cannot happen by accident.

Think of the Creator again! Does he get your and my worship? He is worth it and we can give our lives to Him and wonder about who He is and what He does. His great deeds are sometimes incomprehensible, but He is God!
