Power and Wisdom


Jeremiah 51:15-16

The LORD made the earthy by his power, and he preserves it by his wisdom. With his own understanding he stretched out the heavens. When he speaks in the thunder, the heavens are filled with water. He causes the clouds to rise over the earth. He sends lightning with the rain and releases the wind from his storehouses.

I love to read about God's Power and what better topic than creation? Do you like to make things and you are so proud when you finish? Imagine, God created the world and everything else down to the smallest aspect. We gaze upon the stars and wonder, we look into the ocean depths, we see a newborn baby cry and we are amazed. God knows the ins and outs of everything.

Reading this passage we are reminded of God's power in creating the earth, in His wisdom the world order and how He planned for everything to fall right into place. His voice brings thunder! Amazing…I will never ever cease to be in awe of creation. Whether it is a little human baby or the Grand Canyon, the stars in the sky or the ocean depth, the mountains or the desert how God made all the wonders of the world is beyond my small brain, but I enjoy each and every one!

Thank you Father for sharing your power and wisdom with us through all of your creations!

Sweet Blessings,

Debbie

Debbie, I really like the new blog design! So cute!!!

As I read the passage that you wrote on today, in verse 15, I was reminded that we are to be good stewards of the earth as God told man in Genesis, but it is clear in this verse that God is control of the earth and "HE preserves it by His wisdom." That is a comforting thought to me.
