Above the World

So. I was thinking.

Creation looks so amazing from up here, but down there it's not the same. Down there you can see all the hate and destruction and sin. Up here all you see is how beautiful it is on the outside. Why would God, who is above all of this, come down to our level. Up there you can only see how wonderfully it appears to be, but down here you can see deeper into the problem... Up there we are insignificant specks, but God took / takes the time to not only keep an eye over all of us, but to come down to our level and listen to each and every one of us. All 6 billion+ of us. All 6 billion + of us who have walked our own path. Not only listen to each of us, but also reach out to each of us.

He could have just watched from afar. He could have just destroyed us. He could have done a lot of things, but he chose to speak to us, to reach out to us, to come down and show Himself to us, to teach us, to die for us, to save us. Each of us.

I was thinking while I was up there that I would want to be the person with an office on the highest floor of the tallest building. That would be so cool. Then I realized that it would just be empty pride. It would be easy to become proud of being above other people wouldn't it..? but God humbled himself and came all the way down from his heavenly throne and came down to our level. He was tempted every way we are. He was fully human and fully God. He never sinned. He fought the devil with the Word and with prayer and followed God's word to the dot.

The God above everything, the one whose name is above everything, the greatest of all creation, the creator himself came down from infinity and eternity and stepped into time and even washed Peter's feet. Even though he [Peter] turned from Jesus and denied Him three times in one night, Jesus didn't abandon him.

I don't know where I'm going with this anymore, so, ya..... xP

God is pretty amazing and He even takes the time to reach out for you and me and everyone in the whole world, we just have to pay attention.
