Seeing the Invisible God

by Bob Hamp | Blog Posts | 1 Comment »

In the visible creation God has expressed His invisible attributes.  But you can look and miss it. 

The sun came up today, to remind you that the God who never changes, still constantly renews all things. 

The Planet hung suspended in space one more day, with a perfect balance of temperature, atmosphere, and stability in order to maintain human life.  God holds all things together by continuing to speak the same words that created all things.

The rain fell today in certain places to remind us that God sustains and nurtures out lives.

The rain did not fall in certain places to remind us that God Himself is enough when we are uncertain of our provision.

The wind blew gently today, reminding us that God is constantly in motion and interacting with His creation.

In some places the wind became violent and destroyed things.  In this we see that the immensity and intensity of God is beyond our comprehension, and must be held in wise regard.

A married couple walked together in sweet unity reminding us that God is a two-become-one God.

Another couple walked through difficulty as they tried to connect through their chaos.  In this we can see how different in nature man and God are.  Crossing the gap can be difficult, and requires our focus.

A butterfly came from a cocoon, while a polar bear died a cold and lonely death.  Trees grew and mountains fell.  Oceans fed the people living on their shores, and in other places the fierce oceans caused men to stay home instead of put out in their boats.

Nebulae are creating stars and Solar systems in every direction, while DNA is replicating the minute intricacies of a single family line.  Electricity flows, radio waves fill the air, Living creatures of amazing variety cover the surface of our planet.

A baby is born.

In these and countless infinite moments you can either see the Nature of the Invisible God, or you can walk through the middle of it, and think only of yourself. 

Even the fact that you have this option tells us something about the Invisible God.

Think Bigger.

One Response to “Seeing the Invisible God”

  1. THE GIVER by Lois Lowry comes to mind while reading your blog today. So much of our freedom is taken for granted. Expressions of God’s love is all around us, with a myriad of interpretations, all of which make it hard for me to think man could ever deny His love, His constant flowing of life. So much proof to point to, yet specifically the mere ROYGBIV gives thousands of reasons to praise HIM, creator and sustainer of ALL.
