If you just take a second to look, you’ll see wonder.
In order to fully appreciate the nature of the Creator, we need to become students of His creation. We need to take joy in the intricate details of the world around us We need to see the fashion of the rocks, plants, trees and hills around us. Despite man’s continued use of the planet, beauty is all around us if only we will open our eyes to it. To watch the master is to learn the master’s heart.

Creation is amazing, but re-creation is the most spectacular event of all. God is no lonely Maytag repairman. He is a busy Mr. Fix-It, a Jack-of-all-trades, a Handyman of the Human Heart. He can take the most broken piece of pottery and put it together again. No condition, no misery, no failure is too much for the wondrous Creator who knows no end to His touch.
Creation is not finished. At this very moment Scripture reminds us that “He is preparing a home for us.” Like a masterpiece behind the shroud, he will one day unveil it to all His children. I anticipate with great expectation climbing the steps to the eternal tree house readied for me.
