For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him. Romans 1:21
Who hasn’t marveled at an ocean sunset, a majestic mountains or a glorious waterfall?
And when considering the Earth’s fantastic balances to maintain life, who hasn’t gasped at its unlikelihood?
Or when studying Earth’s creatures, who hasn’t been astonished at how each animal is well equipped to the tiniest of details to live in their environment?
We humans are given all the instructions to have direction and purpose with out lives above all animals. Creation is so astounding the Bible says by its existence alone we people have no excuse to not believe in God.
The verse above warns that something happens when people don’t acknowledge who God is and respond to Him accordingly. For those who refuse to “walk in the light,” He allows foolish hearts to be darkened. The Message Bible interprets Romans 1:21 to read, “They trivialized themselves into silliness and confusion so that there was neither sense nor direction left in their lives.”
Never forget who God is and that He is worthy to be worshipped, praised and thanked. Pray for me, because after the death of my dog Molly, I seem to have lost my direction in life. You see I cursed GOD because He took away my beloved companion. Afterwords I was sorry and prayed for forgiveness. Then I began to realize that Molly was just on loan from God as a gift to me. And that is was time to return the gift back to God because He knew how long He was going to let me have her. God's master plan was being put into motion. I am getting old, my health is failing and I know that my life on earth is coming to an end. Tonight or or maybe a decade away. Only He knows, but I have so many mistakes to correct and so little time to do it.
It kinda feels good to me, to know, that is a short period of time, I will be making my final journey to that place called Heaven and once I arrive, judgment awaits me. Father God I pray now in front of all these witness, that instead of judgement you will show mercy on my poor soul.
Amen.
