Thoughts for another day
September 3, 2010
Today's verse: Is. 54:10. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee. (KJV)
(Pls. read the above before you read further. Thanks)
Were heaven and earth to vanish; disappear and everything become nothing, still God’s kindness will abide and His promise of peace shall not be removed from us; the Sovereign Lord, the God of the universe has to say this to us today. God’s awesome love is simply unbelievable and were it not for the Gospel in our hands where we visualize Jesus on the Cross dying for us, then perhaps it wouldn’t have been possible to see the love of God or even understand it.
God has always shown us His love. It’s we who’ve chosen not to do what He tells us to do. We’re enticed by things we don’t need and run after them tough He has told us not to. Our nature always seeks to rebel against God. In fact such is our rebellion, we cock a snook at His ways and tease Him to try do something to us even as we sin and offend Him. Because He is abundantly patient, He doesn’t do anything but mercifully gives us time to mend our ways for He knows we’re to perish and later be judged by Him; our reward according to what we said and did on earth.
God knows our frailty but we tend to ignore and behave as if we’re invincible, a trait markedly seen in man as He progresses more and more. Just today I read in the newspaper about a new book of Stephen Hawking, a renowned physicist and a cent-percent paralysed man who can’t even drink water by himself say, ‘God did not create the universe!!!’ Of course all his arguments lie in the realm of theory and hypotheses which for most will not make sense and will never be proved. His rationale will be shaped by incomprehensible things that may make sense to some scientists because of ‘logical extensions’ of pre-theorised scientific dogmas, which are far from reality. See the daring of men who claim the non existence of God; such temerity as to invoke His wrath and destruction; Yet He holds His peace and doesn’t destroy. He always allows time to mend and if we do, He welcomes us. His promise - that His kindness is ours and peace from Him will be our life – never departs. Amen.
