The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else.
Acts 17: 24,25
Consider for yourself.
Who created the world and all of it's laws and systems?
Who created man and all of his functions and abilities?
Who created you and placed you in this specific day?
Who is ultimately in charge?
So many believe the world, the universe, and man to have happened by chance over the course of billions of years. Chance created complex systems, functions, and distinctions?
I just can't believe that. Why would someone believe a historical account that no one was around to witness or document, and happened theoretically over a billion years ago? How is that more plausible than the detailed, documented, preserved account of creation in the Bible?
The Bible tells us how things came to be, when, and even why. It tells of the divine creator. It tells of someone else (not us) in charge of events and Lord over everything!
Whether you believe this story or not doesn't discount the fact that he created you and gifted you with all you have around you.
The nature you enjoy, the knowledge you have gained, the possessions that surround you, the people that are in your life - all gifts from the creator!
When someone gives you something as a gift usually you respond with gratitude and appreciation.
Maybe today is the day you give consideration to the fact that God is the giver of life and thank him for making you and giving you this day in time in his creation story.
