God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good.
- Genesis 1:31, NKJV
Someone has said that if God were small enough for us to understand, He would not be big enough to save us. Yet the Bible is God’s revelation of Himself to us. And the revelation is true . . .
At the birth of time and space and human history, against the inky blackness of the universe and the shadowy mysteriousness of eternity, the character of God shone forth with the radiant beauty of a full moon in a cloudless night sky. Even the casual reader of the creation account in Genesis can easily identify . . .
His unequaled power as He called into existence that which had no existence,
His unlimited sovereignty as He took counsel with Himself and decided to create man in His own image,
and His unsearchable goodness that was revealed when He created Adam, the first man.
In what way have you glimpsed the character of God today? Would you praise Him for it?
From Why?
