Godwinks everywhere
Sometimes we overlook the small things, the things that seem insignificant. Today was a day of a lot of small things that continued to remind me how God is always there. These small moments remind me that nothing is coincidence as I stand in awe of God’s miraculous creation of this perfect harmony that we call life. Each instrument playing its individual part and coming together to create music that could never be created on its own. “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or auhtorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together” (Colossians 1:16-17, NIV)
God is the light of the world
I am sure some of you started the New Year with the goal of reading the Bible in a year. In previous years, when I had this goal I would listen to the audio version of the Bible while I walked or completed other tasks. Last year, I decided to spend more intentional time in reading the Bible so I would sit, and read, and meditate on what I read. I immediately noticed a difference as I read that “the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep” (Genesis 1:1-2, NIV). The next verse states that “God said, “Let there be light", and there was light” (Genesis 1:3, NIV). The world went from being formless and empty to being filled with light-can you imagine that moment?
