DAILY?READINGS: 2 Chronicles 20; Ezekiel 39; John 16:16-33
And God saw everything he had made, and, behold, it was very good. Genesis 1:31
God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth,… And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth. Genesis 6:5-6
The works of God are perfect. When God beheld, with satisfaction, the creation which He had completed, man was a part of His gratification. However, it was man who grieved the Creator to the point of revulsion. How gracious of God that He did not simply wipe out the human race and turn elsewhere to fulfill His purposes. Rather, at the cost of the death of His Son, He offers to man a perfect new creation, via new birth in Christ. —Doug Kazen
Blind unbelief is sure to err, and scan His work in vain;
God is His own interpreter, and He will make it plain. —W. Cowper
