God and My World All of us struggle every day to try to get control of our environments. We try to build financial wealth so that we wont suffer need. We try to take care of our health so we dont feel pain or suffer illness. We try to manage our relationships to reduce stress. It is humbling, though, to realize that we arent in control of very much. Actually, this world doesnt really even belong to us. We are guests in someone elses world; we are actors in someone elses play. The earth is the LORDs, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters (Psalm 24:1,2). Every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10). It is humbling to realize that we were created for Gods benefit, that everything really belongs to him, and that we really own nothing. But its exhilarating too. The Creator of the universe is also our heavenly Father. The great Power uses his power to bless and protect and prosper us. The great Owner of all wealth loves to give gifts to his children. The great Engineer is planning even now how he will guide your steps in this world to get you home to his. Heres a thought: The same Being who created the Grand Canyon loves you dearly.
