Just thinking about how much God loves us. What a healing thing it is. He places so much value on us and is very thoughtful towards us. Look at how well objects in nature suit us - they are beautiful to us, just the right size for our needs:
Trees are big enough to make things out of or climb in
Fruit is big enough for one serving or to share
The sun lights up the day so we can go about our business, but it goes away so we can sleep
We have animals to do things we can't do, or for companionship
And on
And on!
It makes me want to know God better so I can honor him and be thoughtful toward him in return.
I just read an article that mentions that it is ridiculous to claim we cannot know God because he is mysterious. It quotes the verse "My people are fools; they do not know me." (Jeremiah 4:22) Ouch! I don't want to be a fool, I think I'll go ahead and believe God when he says:
19For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Romans 1
