Admin Stuff

Hello All! A few administrative things.

First, our new poll is up on the left side of the screen.

Second, if you want to leave a comment and do not already have a blog account, click the comments button at the bottom of the blog, type in your comment in the box that comes up, below the comment box you have three choices of how to post - click "Anonymous", then click the "Publish" button. You can sign your name within your comments or remain totally anonymous.

NOTE: All comments are moderated so your comments will not appear on the blog until they have been read and approved, but you will get a message at the top of the page saying your comments have been sent to the Moderator.

Finally, my (Dave's) mom got on me for always using "Hi GUYS" in my greeting. As I explained to her - this is a gender-neutral "guys". I'll try to do better, but if I don't, know we are all inclusive :-).

The Truth of God Revealed in Creation

This post will be easier to read than just hear, so no video today. Take a few minutes to read Psalm 19:1-4 below and ponder all we've talked about for the past week and a half.

New Living Translation - NLT:

The heavens proclaim the glory of God.

The skies display his craftsmanship.

Day after day they continue to speak;

night after night they make him known.

They speak without a sound or word;

their voice is never heard.

Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,

and their words to all the world.

The Message Paraphrase - MSG:

God's glory is on tour in the skies,

God-craft on exhibit across the horizon.

Madame Day holds classes every morning,

Professor Night lectures each evening.

Their words aren't heard,

their voices aren't recorded,

But their silence fills the earth:

unspoken truth is spoken everywhere.

God Created People

In our last post we talked about how God reveals who He is through nature (His creation). This post we are going all the way back to the very beginning (Genesis 1). In verse 27 we learn that God created you and I in His image. A few verses later (verse 31) we read that God said it was "very good."

So, in this post we're discussing how God can reveal who He is through other people.

As always, we welcome your thoughts and comments via the comment button at the bottom of this post.
