I marvel at creation. God is a master artist, sculptor, designer, and inventor. It has been said that He can make old things look new and new things look old. When God gets in a creative mode, He holds nothing back. Just looking at our universe, it is stunningly beautiful, staggering in complexity, and extravagant in all regards. I love to be outside and just explore God’s wonders.
While creation can be breathtaking, I marvel even more at His grace. When God created the Heavens and Earth He did it perfectly. Only when Adam and Eve chose freely to sin did creation become imperfect. The only way to cover the marring left by man’s sin was for the Great Artist to make a brush stroke with His grace. I love this poem by Bennard.
Yes, God was so great in creation,
But greater, much greater in grace!
For when man had sinned and had grieved Him,
He sent Christ to die in his place. —Bennard
Be blessed today!
