The Stuff of His Imagination

God had to exist forever Or nothing could be All around us is evidence The very fact that we can see From nothing comes nothing Random acts didn't create man I'm no monkey's relative I'm part of God's plan As I look out my window I let my mind flow Seeking knowledge From the God I wish to know Within my minds eye I travel back in time I pray for understanding The face of the Divine With logical thinking If I go back far enough There can be nothing from nothing Only God can create stuff We are the stuff of his dreams It is through him that we are real Our mind body and spirits Interconnected spokes on life's wheel What is small is big What is big is small There is only one hand Who can hold it all So I look to the heavens I try to comprehend Nothing is truly random With a God that has no end

I'm always amazed by the first few paragraphs of Genesis, the beginning almost explained in terms of evolution, all the steps are correct but written a time long before evolution was even thought of. Makes you wonder where they got that from. Nice one Rick, Take care, Richard

this is the one thing I am SURE Of, that we are not from nothing, and that there has to be a creator. VERY nice!!!

I know it's probably strange to profess my belief and love of God, yet I do believe in evolution. I guess it's just a difference in theological beliefs. I think the "big-bang" and evolution was God's way of putting everything in motion. Though we may not agree, I did enjoy this piece. I enjoy anything that gives glory to God, for he deserves it. I wouldn't be typing this but for his Grace. Kudos, Richard :)

I think the most important part is that you believe, the rest is just details. One day He will answer all of our questions.

Ummmm...Amen! You know, I will never understand people with no faith. How can you look all around you and not believe in the higher power! God is good!

Not only is He the Creator, He can recreate His image in us through His Spirit if you are open to His work....Lovely thoughts here.....
