The Builder Of Flowers

Hebrews says that God is the builder of everything. In other words, when you see leaves, butterflies or flowers, they have a builder. The most complex HDTV cannot compare to the complexity of the human eye. The most complex stereo system cannot compare to the complexity of the human ear. All the electrical systems known to man cannot compare to the complexity of one human cell. And the most complex computer ever devised by human intelligence cannot compare to the complexity of the human brain. So why would anybody believe that these things came about by accident? Would you believe a TV came about with no builder? Would an atheist believe it? Of course not. So which is more ridiculous? The fact is God is The Builder of everything.

So be strong in that and rejoice in the fact that He also built you. He gave His life for you, and He’s now building your life into something good and precious. So let Him build you. And be built up, because God is The Builder of everything. How much more so your life?

Today’s Mission – Today, take time to appreciate all the wonderful things of God’s creation.

The Unchanging Need of the Human Heart

Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. Isaiah 45:22

We of the twentieth century have exactly the same basic needs as the people of the first century. We feel the weight of sin and mortality just as they did. We long for peace and life eternal exactly as they did. We are tortured by fears, stunned by losses, grieved by betrayals, hurt by enmities, made heartsick by failures, scared by threatening death, chased by the devil and frightened cold by the thought of coming judgment. They sat in their simple houses and worried by candlelight. We speed along in sleek, shiny cars and do our worrying between stoplights. But the end result is the same for everybody: slow progress backward toward old age and the grave with no place to hide and no friend to help.

God called His Son’s name Jesus because He knew the human race needed deliverance from sin; and He sent the angels to announce “Peace on earth” because He knew the world needed deliverance from the gnawing tooth of inward fear. And nothing basic has changed. We today need Jesus, and we need Him for the same reasons they needed Him 2,000 years ago. The more things change, the more they remain the same.
