Cherry Grove Beach, South Carolina... Sitting on the balcony, looking at the Magnificent Ocean, the endless Sky, the innumerable ("uncountable") grains of sand!!!!!!!!!
Even with all the scientific research, and all the exploration that Man has done.....Yet there still remain in the Ocean - areas and wonders that man has not explored --- and of course not yet comprehended.
And the Sky (Space) --- HOW VAST?????????. Light travels at a speed of 186,000 (one hundred and eighty-six thousand) miles per SECOND!!! With the Hubble Telescope, and other instruments --- scientists are able to "see" stars that are so distant from earth---that the distance is measured in "Light YEARS"!!!!!!!!! I will leave it up to You to calculate how MANY seconds there are in a year! So how VAST IS SPACE???????
In Hebrews 1:1-3 (In the New Testament/Amplified Bible) GOD'S WORD says GOD'S "SON JESUS...upholds, maintains, guides, and propels the UNIVERSE by HIS MIGHTY WORD OF POWER"!!!!!!!!!
Let's think about the beauties of the Earth --- Majestic Waterfalls, the intimate and rich beauty of flowers, the stars in the sky, beautiful lakes, mountains, rivers,...the Oceans .....GOD did not send HIS SON JESUS to die for the oceans, waterfalls, flowers, etc. JESUS Died on the CROSS to Save You and Me from our sins!!!!!
AHA! You thought that you were finished with calculating the Vastness of Space, the Oceans,etc! As I look down at the beach.....HOW MANY grains of sand are in that small red bucket that is being carried by that little girl as she runs down the beach??? How many grains of sand on this Whole beach??? How about on ALL of the beaches in the World??? AND how many on ALL the Deserts of the WORLD?????
"How Precious also are YOUR thoughts to Me, O GOD!!! How great is the Sum of them! If I should count them, they would be MORE in number than the sand." (Psalm 139:17-18).
Even beyond SAVING us...GOD wants us EACH ...(And HE has already paid the price for us) to have a PERSONAL RELATION with HIM!!! JESUS loves us So Much that HE wants to give to us --- "GINOSKO"!!!!! DEFINITION: know, ginosko, ["ghin-oce-koe"] to perceive, understand, come to know...It is the RECOGNITION of TRUTH BY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE." (John 8:32).
HIS plan is for US to recognize the TRUTH OF WHO HE IS BY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE!!! JESUS says in (John 16:13) "HE (The HOLY SPIRIT) will guide you into all Truth."
GOD Created the earth and all things --- So HE could live anywhere HE wants...But HE CHOOSES to live in OUR HEARTS!!!
Ask JESUS to forgive your sins, and to come live in your heart; Ask HIM to fill you with The HOLY SPIRIT. (Mark 1:8).
So what are You and I to do?..... Through the situations in our lives, we are to continue to submit to JESUS. As time goes on, we will experience more and more of HIM!!!
The intimacy of "knowing" (Ginosko) is already in place in HIS heart---HE knows our every thought before we think it, our every word before we speak it (Psalm 139:1-24).
HE is calling both You and me to Experience HIM for OURSELVES!!! Let us read HIS WORD regularly, asking The HOLY SPIRIT to guide us into all TRUTH.
GINOSKO!!! PERSONALLY EXPERIENCE JESUS!!!!!!!!! HE is Eagerly waiting for us to ask HIM!!!
