Divine Revelation

Rom 1:20 says "For the invisible things of Him (God) from the creation of the world are clearly seen...". There is so much in that verse for us to see and so many thoughts that we could consider. One is that it is finally Springtime and things are beginning to come alive again. We have been able to see God in the power of the snow storms and also His beauty and Holiness in the white coverings, but now we see Him as things begin to change. Some time ago, we had a missionary that was with us whose ministry was to the deaf. It dawned on me that for someone that is born deaf and receives the wonderful gift of salvation, the first thing they will ever hear is the voice of God as they enter His presence at death. The same goes with a person who is born blind and never gets to experience the wonder of God's creation - though tainted by sin. Yet, when their eyes close in death, they awaken to the glories of Heaven as they see for the very first time. So, how does this relate to our verse of consideration and also to those of us who have hearing and sight? It is kind of like the experience that Saul of Tarsus had on the road to Damascus. Saul, who we know best as Paul, believed in God and was doing what he thought God wanted him to do as a devout Jew. But, then he met Jesus (in the form of a bright light) on the road that day, and everything became crystal clear. As a lost person, we know there is a God, but we can't really understand who He is. As a child of God, we see Him clearly. The birds sing a different song, the rose smells a bit sweeter, and we don't mind the Spring showers because they are all a part of God's divine plan. What a difference it makes when God opens our senses and we acknowledge His presence. Don't miss meeting with God today. Enjoy the day that God has given and thank Him for it.
