A Wide-eyed Wonder

"Taste and see that the Lord is good." Psalm 34:8

In a recent class, we were talking about the Triune nature of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  How God reveals himself as 'three-in-one' is both mystifying and magnetizing to me.

As I continued to think on this, I began to enter a wide-eyed wonder of the multi-dimensional love revealed to us through our triune God....

God, Creator and Father: He loves us through his plan and design for our lives. He had a story in mind, before he even formed the foundations of the world, 'choosing us to live before him as children, made whole and holy in his love.' Ephesians 1:4,5

As random as life feels as times, we can be assured and reassured that there is a plan and design of a loving, good God and Father. He brings order to the chaos and is able to make all things work together for good. You can trust your life in his hands.

Jesus, Savior and Son: He loved us enough to come to earth, take on the human nature and show us love through his life and actions. Ultimately, he paid the price of death, to eliminate any separation between us; proving there is nothing that can hold back his love towards us. If needed (and it's not), he would do it all again today. It's important to remember that's how much he loves you and is committed to your well being.

God, the Holy Spirit: He loves us through his presence and power living in and around us. The Holy Spirit is the tangible reality of God in our lives today, and our hope of knowing him personally and intimately. He is not a God who is far off and distant, who may or may not answer our cries for help. 'The nearness of God is my good.' Psalm 73:28

Rest, rejoice and be refreshed. Oh, how he loves you!
