The Majesty of Our God

Can anyone truly look at a sunset
and say that there is no God?

Or gaze into the heavens on a starry night and
not know that we have been blessed
by the Presence of an Almighty Creator?

And then there are those billowing cloud formations
we lay staring at as a child.
Could this be an act of chance?

Or listen to the melodious tune of a babbling brook
as it sings on its merry journey.
God's handiwork is all around us
and His signature is on each of His masterpieces.

And the greatest masterpieces
He ever created were
YOU and ME!
Because He created us in His Image.

To say that we have tarnished that image
is certainly an understatement.

But just like all His other Masterpieces,

we are not complete until He signs His work.

God puts His signature on YOU and ME
the day that WE receive salvation
through Jesus Christ
when we are buried in baptism
and raised to walk in the new life.
Romans 6: 3 & 4

That is when we become members
of the body of Christ.
Mark 16:16:

"He who believes

AND is baptized shall be saved."

Acts 2:38:

"Repent and be baptized

for the forgiveness of sins

and you shall receive the gift of

the Holy Spirit."
