Look up!!! by Gary Rose

Over the millennia of our existence, human beings have accomplished marvelous things,  from being able to split the minuscule atom to sending probes to the farthest realms of our solar system. But, even with all our amazing scientific achievements, we still hate and often kill one another. We lie, cheat, steal and perform a vast array  of things that ultimately destroy us. We have a name and that describes us to a tee- violent!!!

And then- Consider God, look at what HE DOES!!! And his name, well- I don't have words for it, but David did...

Psalm 8 (WEB)

 1  Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth,
who has set your glory above the heavens! (emp. added GDR)
  2 From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength,
because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
  3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;
  4 what is man, that you think of him?
What is the son of man, that you care for him? (emp. added GDR)
  5 For you have made him a little lower than God,
and crowned him with glory and honor.
  6 You make him ruler over the works of your hands.
You have put all things under his feet:
  7 All sheep and cattle,
yes, and the animals of the field,
  8 The birds of the sky, the fish of the sea,
and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
  9 Yahweh, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth! (emp. added GDR)

Yes, God made man in his image, according to HIS likeness and gave human beings free will, but as a race, we have never measured up. Our pride will be our undoing, because many of us think that we do not need our creator because WE ARE GOD'S. 

Do you want something better out of this life that where you are right now? Look up!!! See God's creation and seek your creator while there is still time. And when you have reached the point of following his son (Jesus) you will have a new name- Christian!!! And some day, you will dwell with God beyond time and space for all eternity!!!

LOOK UP- NOW!!!
