Consider the words of Paul today:
Romans 1:20-25
20For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities — his eternal power and divine nature — have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen.
When is the last time you really allowed yourself to break out of the fog of life and see what’s right in front of you? God’s creative glory is on display everywhere… we can’t deny the beauty and majesty of the creation. We can’t help but be amazed by the complexity of life… the vastness of the universe… the sheer number of the stars that can be seen on a moonless night away from the city. We can’t begin to fully grasp how our minds work… why the laws of physics are what they are… let alone how this entire universe came into being.
When we’re honest with ourselves, we find ourselves in complete amazement of life and all that it entails.
God is. God was. God always will be. And He’s screaming out for our attention. In fact, we can’t help but see Him.
Yet we’re so often willing to worship anything but Him? How?
We’re without any semblance of a valid excuse.
