The Great Creator Our Helper

Come, sit, and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee in the comfort of the Lord:  "Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamour and evil speaking be put away from you with all malice."  Ephesians  4:31

"...I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:  Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number."  Job  5:8,9

     It is comforting to know that the all-powerful Creator, whose hand of wonder is marvelously displayed in all of nature, is the same loving Heavenly Father who is equally mighty to help His children in their times of need.  With confidence, therefore, we can rest our cause in His great all-knowing care, assured that the same wonders we see in nature will be matched by the gracious blessings of His kindly providences.  An unknown author underlines this thought as follows:

     "Consider the little bees that organizes a city that builds 10,000 cells for honey, 12,000 cells for larvae, and finally, a very special cell for the mother queen; a little bee that observes the increasing heat and, when the wax may melt and the honey be lost, organizes the swarm into squads, puts sentinels at the entrances, glues the feet down, and then with flying wings, creates a system of ventilation to cool the honey that makes an electric fan seem tawdry - a little honey bee that will include 20 square miles in the field over whose flowers it has oversight.  If a tiny brain in a bee performs such wonders, who are you that you should question the guidance of God?  Lift up your eyes and behold the hand that supports the stars without pillars the God who guides the planet without collision - He it is who cares for you!"

     Yes, this all-knowing, gracious God will "guide you with His eye" and uphold you with His everlasting arms.  Rest confidently today in the center of His will.
