How can anyone who
reads the Bible and sees the love of God expressed in such tender ways down
through the generations not respond with absolute love towards God? How can anyone not see all that God does for His
people and for all of His creation not
fall absolutely in love with Him, desire to worship Him, serve Him , and be a
good steward to all He created?
From the beginning
of time, from generation to generation, continuing on into today and forever,
God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has expressed absolute love and care to all
His creation, especially to His people.
That love and care is freely given to all who would receive it. How can anyone that receives that love not
respond in absolute adoration to this loving God?
It is beyond my
thinking how that love can be ignored, rejected, or despised. It is beyond my thinking how Jesus can stand
in this world today and still be stripped, mocked, and spit upon. It is beyond my thinking how we can pollute
the air, rape and pillage the land, and contaminate the oceans. It is beyond my thinking how we can so easily
dismiss the Scriptures that hold truth, the life, and the ways that provide the
solutions to all of the troubles in our world today.
How bad do things
have to get, how much precious life and land needs to be squandered, before we
come to our senses and remember the One who created us and all things; remember
the One who only has love, joy, and peace to give to us?
