Good Friday morning! We can only hope for some kind of renaissance for our football team this weekend. Reading in Isaiah 29 today and came to this discussion of evolution.
How stupid can you be? He is the Potter, and he is certainly greater than you. You are only the jars he makes! Should the thing that was created say to the one who made it, "He didn't make us"? Does a jar ever say, "The potter who made me is stupid"?
That is something we are assaulted with almost daily, "you are an accident of the universe" No, we are beloved creations of an almighty God. If you come upon, or are experiencing, a difficult moment today, remember that you are beloved of God. I see a suggestion in Guideposts this month that we spend 15 minutes each day being grateful, or listing those things in our life that we are thankful to God for providing to us. I think that will barely scratch the surface of God's blessings, but it should pay huge rewards in improving me to an "attitude of gratitude," as I hear now and again. It is much easier to dwell on the problems in this life, after all those problems tend to throw themselves in our face moment by moment. Let us fight back with gratitude!
God bless and keep you this weekend!
