Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
You were the first one, before anything else was created, because you were the one that had to do the creating. And you care about ME????!!!!! Good grief! You thought about and even WANTED to create ME? WOW! I can’t get my mind around that.
You created and cared about even the things that cannot be seen. The things that are too small to be seen. You CARE! Why do You care so much? I don’t understand it but am grateful.
You care about the grass hopper that I saw drowning in a pail of water. You cared that I fished him/her out and put him on a plant to dry out. You cared about the injured cricket that I sent swirling down the drain. I can still see him desperately holding onto the drain grid before he lost his grip and swirled down into the pipes and into the drain field.
You are the HUGE God of the universe, with so many important things to do and think about and you care about ME!!! Why? Why do You bother? I am just a speck on the canvas of eternity and you care.
I can picture You taking a magnifying glass and zeroing in on the speck of me. You bend as close the canvas as you can get and bring me into focus. You don’t just look, observe, you have compassion and strong feelings about that little speck that you are so lovingly focused on. That is so far beyond my comprehension that is hard to imagine.
Thank you for caring.
Thank you for loving.
Thank you for focusing.
