The Universe is a vast unending space. That to me, in itself, is so mind boggling. As much of space as we humans have been able to explore, it is full of cold, hard rocks and desolate moons and planets. And yet, here we are on a small planet covered in grasses, trees, sand and water. Why? Why this planet? Why humans? Why birds, bunnies, deer, dolphins, whales? Why dogs and cats - once wild - now tamed and human companions? And How? Even if you are an Evolutionist, don't you have to believe that whatever we evolved from was created ? And do humans, groundhogs, wolves, giraffes all evolve from the same "thing"? I don't see the creation story being any more impossible than evolution.
Besides, being one who likes to create - be it a cake, a painting, a blog post or a craft - I like the romance of a Master Creator.
This morning there was a little lace wing on the window. He was so pale and delicate, his wings so intricate. What purpose does he serve? I don't know except that this morning he served to bring me pleasure. Created for my pleasure! What a lovely thought. Honestly, I love to think about God sitting at his Creation Table designing all these wonderful creatures and things. Think of the imagination - hippos, scorpions, butterflies, and . . . mosquitoes. Why mosquitoes? It's an incredible world. It's an incredible, awesome world and I give thanks to God the Creator every day.
I was once asked how I could see all this and I wonder, how can you not?
