On God

On God

“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.” 
                                                                                C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain.
As I look around me from my perch in Canada I see a world that is slowly turning from God and His ideals. There are many out there that say God dose not exist. They say that this life is all we have. If so what a waste of a soul.
To live just a few seconds in the eternity of time is to me not worth it. Especially in the kind of world we live in with all its problems. For me there has to be more.
I truly believe there is a God who made the universe and everything in it. A God who created man to have fellowship with him. A God who knew that for man to truly have fellowship with Him in a meaningful way had to have a freewill.
That freewill however is a two way street. In giving man a freewill God gave man the ability to believe in Him of not. That’s the beauty of having a free will. We can choose to believe what we want to.
For me I see God’s handiwork all around, everything from the majesty of the galaxies to the precision of the smallest subatomic particles.
I see God’s handiwork in the flowers and the living world around me.
I am reminded by science that our world is at just the right distance from the sun to produce life as we know it. That even the distant stars and planets are positioned in such away as to help life exist on this planet we call home.
I cannot believe that this is all by chance. For me there has to be a God who created it all. A God who offers me and all who would believe in him eternal life in heaven a place far from the problems of this world.
A God who gives us a choice. Jesus saying,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son”. 
                                                                                                                                John 3:16-18.
Therefor the choice is yours dear reader. You can believe in God or your can reject Him. For as C. S. Lewis states,
“Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.”

Please think about it.
