In the beginning God. Indeed, God existed first and foremost before the formation of the world and without Him nothing exists. This was true in the days of Genesis when God the Almighty formed the world and it remains true today. The same God who created the world and then became flesh to bring us salvation remains in total control of all things.
Further, the universe is His whether the components of the universe are visible or invisible. He alone spoke this world into its form and equipped mankind with the capability to enjoy its richness from one generation to another. The question is why is it that, even to this day, the Lord God of Glory is so mindful of man? Why does He care so much about you and I?
In the beginning, God set man over the works of His own hands, desiring that man be fruitful and multiply. As such, God continues to replenish His creation, of which God Himself, upon completion of His handiwork, saw His creation to be good. Think of it. God Almighty thought His creation -- man and woman -- you and me -- to be good. Good! But God's love story does not end there.
He loved this creation because the creation was "God Himself invisible in created form." And to this day, the Heavens continue to declare His Glory and the earth continues to show forth His handiwork. All He asks is that we personally acknowledge that without His sacrifice on the cross, we are as nothing. That we desire with all our heart, soul and mind to know His plan for our life in exchange for His Amazing Grace! His amazing love!
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see. T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear and Grace my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear the hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares we have already come. T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far and Grace will lead us home. The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail and mortal life shall cease, I shall possess within the veil a life of joy and peace. When we've been here ten thousand years bright shining as the sun. We've no less days to sing God's praise then when we've first begun. Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see.
