God’s fingerprints are on all of His creation. Still, His word tells us that Man is His most prized creation, and I believe His greatest disappointment. (Genesis 6:6) His Word says He delights in us and if we love one another, we are His children. He loved us so much that He gave His only begotten Son, so that we could eternally live with Him. How precious we are to Him. Yet, many stubbornly refuse to recognize Jesus Christ as our Savior.
God loves us so much that He frees us to make our own choices. Good or bad! Right or wrong! He gave free will. There is an old adage by Kahlil Gibran; “If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don’t, they never were.” This freedom separates us from all other earthly creation. And every time it is exercised, it defines how great our God loves us.
He gives us all the freedom to make choices for ourselves or for His glory. No one is born by mistake. God has a plan for every one that has received His gift of life. No one else can accomplish what God has purposed for you! Just as you are unique, your purpose in His story is uniquely yours. To live a life in testimony to His glory is to live a life of obedience to His commandments. His will for your life is not hard to figure out. It’s not a mystery. It’s so easy children do it without question. Love Him! Love Others!
Your love is important to ushering in the kingdom of Heaven.
