They Know Where You Are
It used to boggle my mind that God could know exactly where I was at any given moment. Exactly! Now, we can buy vehicles with GPS (Global Positioning System) technology built right in. "They" (unknown somebodies) can find you no matter where you go, and for a mere $99 ( http://delorne.com ) YOU can find yourself as well. Kind of scary isn't it?
Of course, God doesn't need technology and His powers far exceed anything we might conceive. Indeed, while all the snowballing techno growth of the past 50 years has seemed to make man more "powerful" and leave us shocked at nothing, it also props open the door to accepting God's reality even wider.
We speak in a language of superlatives partly because we live lives of pure wonder. Consider a "time traveler" from the time of Christ. Imagine his reaction when someone flicks a light switch and a room of gloom instantly becomes brighter than day. "Let there be light," assumes new meaning. He understands it better than we do. We've taken it for granted far too long.
God doesn't need the switch, wiring, generator or anything beyond the sheer force of His Word, but let us not miss the wonder that God wrote the laws of physics and it is He who inspired the mind of man each time a ray of inspiration lit the way to techno progress.
I sit here in my cozy Florida kitchen typing words which will be readable all over the world the moment I upload them. Amazing! My Father, the King of the Universe, however is "reading" my thoughts even before they are formulated on the screen. Miraculous! How I do enjoy the marvels God has made available to us, most especially Himself, for He is the greatest marvel of all!!
