When I consider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the Son of Man, that Thou visitest Him? For Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned Him with glory and honour. Thou madest Him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet: All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. O LORD our Lord, how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! (Psalms 8:3-9)
What are we compared to GOD. Yet, He loves us, He created us as the crowning achievement of His creation, made in His image, to be in fellowship with Him. We messed it all up, when we (in Adam) sinned against our righteous and Holy GOD. And GOD still loves us, and made Himself of no reputation, formed as a man, He humbly and willingly went to the Cross of Calvary for us.
The GOD of the Universe, The Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, who created with His Word, who is the judge of all the earth, loves us so much that He provided the only way to the Father, Salvation in His Name. He formed all things perfectly, and our sIn and rebellion against Him led to death, disease, ugliness, and ungodliness. All of creation, as grand and majestic as it is, is cursed and broken because of our sIn. And man, while the height of creation, even against the majesty of all the stars and the beauty of nature, is broken and in need of a saviour to pay the sIn debt we owe to GOD.
That sIn debt was paid for us when Jesus went to that Cross and put to death the flesh in our place. He has been raised up, and now sits at the right hand of GOD the Father. He is Lord and GOD has crowned Him King and one day He will rule this earth from Jerusalem with all nations under His feet.
Only those that have a relationship with Him by Faith in His finished work will be with Him for all eternity. His forgiveness doesn't make us better, just redeemed and made new in Christ. GOD is not willing that any should perish, He wants you to know Him and be born again. Jesus loves you and desires a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. He invites you to receive Him by faith and let him give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. Surrender to Him on His terms and believe in Him today.
