Jeremiah 32:17,21

"Ah Lord God!  Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm!  Nothing is too difficult for You . . . You brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt . . . with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm . . . "  Jeremiah 32:17,21

To look at the complexity of all that we know and conclude that it all "happened" by chance over time is, to me, incredible.  The world did not "happen;" God made everything with intelligence, design, and, as is seen in this passage, with power!  What an encouragement it is to know that the power of God that created  man is the same power of God that rescues man from the mess we got ourselves into!

God, thank you for taking me from where I was and, by Your power, bringing me to where I am today.
