Fw: The obvious invisible

Romans 1:20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made.
-
Paul has strong words for people who have turned their back on God.  And all men do...from the beginning of their lives or at other times...turn their back on God.  Despite the obvious evidence of Creation, which we daily see and experience, we ignore the invisible One behind it all.  Amazingly, we even fail to see His hand in our own lives.  What we read in Genesis of the beginning of all things: about the Creation of the world, the atmosphere, and all living things is now in evidence.  And as one season blends to the next, as fall is now showing signs of winter, we are reminded that what God began He also maintains in perfect balance.  The absolute beauty of what God called "good" in the Genesis account still displays His touch and His care.  His artist's brush is in every sky and His sculptor's fingers in the clay of every hill and valley.  And yet...we can forget...we can fail to see...we can choose to ignore and avoid Him.
-
We forget that the other thing that God formed in the beginning was an intimate relationship with man and woman.  He still desires that today and, if we will turn and seek Him....He will guide us back to that place.  That is the place where the invisible part of you and I meets the invisible Creator in the place of peace, rest and oneness that He intended from the beginning.

"Death is inevitable.  Life is a choice!"

John 11:25
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live."
