OUR DAILY BREAD:
GOD's AMAZING LOVE:
God is love in His very nature and HIS love is revealed in many ways.
IN CREATION.
The love of God gives us a new method of seeing nature. His voice is on the rolling air; we see HIM in the rising and setting of the sun. In the singing of the birds and in the love of human hearts, the voice of God is present.
IN HIS WISDOM.
God didn't create humans as puppets to please a despotic desire of HIS own. HE created us out of HIS overflowing love and goodness, and HE made us able to receive all the blessedness which HE had ordained for us. HE " thought" us in the rapture of HIS own great heat, and lo, we are! Created in the image of GOD were we, innocent of evil, with great GOD-like capacities.
IN HIS POWER.
The whole world moves to GOD's great, inscrutable will. " For in HIM all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through HIM, and for HIM" (Colossians 1:16). Animate and inanimate creation, the celestial bodies moving in their orbits, the glove with all its diverse issues and accompaniments-are all subservient to this end.
IN HIS HOLINESS.
GOD walked and talked with mankind. HE told them HIS mind and showed them the path in which they must walk in order to enjoy the happiness GOD had ordained for them. He rejoiced in the fullness of HIS nature over humanity as HIS children, the offspring of HIS love. Oh, the joy and rapture of GOD the FATHER over us!
IN HIS JUSTOCE.
God showed to humanity that compliance with HIS dictates would always mean eternal bliss and unspeakable joy, life, and knowledge forever-but that failure to comply would mean the loss of life with GOD and eternal death.
In the world's bright morning, the stars sang together, and all creation leaped in joy. Then the wild desolation of disobedience, pride, and selfish sinfulness entered, opening a great gulf between GOD's children and HIMSELF. But, as always, love found a way-GOD came to us and for us. Now, with chastened hearts and quivering lips and glistening eyes, yet with love deep and strong in our hearts, we say again with deep adoration, GOD is love.
If GOD exhibits such glorious love in HIS nature, what shall we say of the glories of the giving of HIS grace? The gift of GOD's only begotten SON surely reveals HIS love in an amazing degree". HE who did not spare HIS own SON, but gave him up for us all-how will HE no also, along with HIM, graciously give us all things"? (Ro.8:32). It doesn't matter how bad people are; if they will just lift their eyes to the cross, they WILL be saved.
