Beneath the Surface

Because the world is in an abnormal, fallen condition, people tend to think that chance governs the universe. Events seem to occur randomly, with little or no meaning. People who view the world this way have overlooked one basic fact: the limitations of human understanding. What we know of the world we inhabit is only the tip of the iceberg. Submerged beneath the surface of the visible world are mysteries too vast for us to comprehend. If we could only see how close God is to us and how constantly He works on our behalf, we would never again doubt that He is wonderfully caring for us. This is why I must walk by faith and not by sight, trusting in His mysterious, majestic Presence.

"Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation? Tell me if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone- while morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy? " Job 38:4-7

God created all things, therefore he is in all things. Our world is much more spiritual than we even realize. Everything is spiritual, because God is at the root of all things created. If I could only see how close God is to me and how he is constantly working all around me I would never doubt again. I have Peace in my current state as a human being who loves God, who is not too sure of what my life should look like or where it is leading me because I believe he cares for me and is very much involved in my life. So I walk by faith and not by sight.

My life has looked pretty "random" but now I see a very thought out, beautiful and personal story my life is telling. It's not by chance that things have happened they way they have. It's all part of a bigger story being told.
