Psalms 104 Notes:
God our creator; including the world around us, does so through his spirit breathing life into every creature. How marvelous to know that our origins are from his spirit. We have been divinely created, part of the harmony of this world. Knowing that everything has a time, place and purpose. How wonderful to imagine that he breathed life into it all and that it was perfect in the beginning.
No wonder when we sin we become separate from God and the divine order he put into place long ago. At that moment, we are out of harmony with his creation, no longer in concert with the rest of life. It is for this reason that we are lost. One sin was enough to remove us from the order he put into place, time a function of that order would not accommodate reconciliation. The world itself was doomed along with us when it occurred, a train off the tracks.
Thank God that he loved us so much to send his Son who spake the world into existence from the beginning. Christ and the Holy Spirit working again in Tandem to reclaim what man derailed a right relationship with God. We are reconciled to him through the death and resurrection of Christ the cross and maintained daily by the Spirit. Just as in the beginning; our life, which is only possible through God, remains a part of God, and a gift, without which there could be no life.
This Easter I admonish myself to remember his good works, of which you and I am a integral part and praise his Holy Name.
It is well with my soul when I rest in him.
