Genesis 1:1-3
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

God is an amazing creator. He is the provider and sustainer (Acts 17:24-26). The wonder is that he created everything out of nothing.

Creating everything out of nothing – is beyond our perception or imagination. It’s like explaining to a blind person color ‘red’ – how could you explain it? And that is why it takes faith to please God. The universe or “heavens” or sky that we see with our eyes is wonderful. It is a great thing to go into a planetarium and watch closely into the heights of God’s celestial creations. Yet it is even greater to look into the depth of our heart to see how much of God we see there in those depths and voids of our heart and life.

Heaven, where God dwells is wonderful. It is awesome. But it is just that we can’t see it and so to perceive it. I feel the need of faith, like the Apostles were, to see myself living a life that is pleasing and acceptable before God in this lost world. Remember Jesus said; the wickedness of this world is a killer of our faith and the destroyer of goodness in us. We need faith, and we need it more are more in increasing measures as we face each day. The perfect place to look for faith is the scriptures and especially miracles.

God is the Lord over even ‘nothing’. If you think your life is “nothing” – God is still the master over it. Look at the stars. He can make wonders to the proportion of this universe, out of your ‘nothingness’, when you acknowledge it and take it to God. God is awesome. Let’s mould a new era in our walk with God.
