I
smiled when I first saw this picture. It gave me pleasure. A very
simple little play on words, nothing fancy, but nevertheless – I
enjoyed it. I wonder, what gives God pleasure? Probably many things,
but here is one of them…
1
Corinthians 1 ( World
English Bible
)
1Co 1:21, For seeing that in the wisdom
of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s
good pleasure (emphasis
added) through the foolishness of the preaching to save those
who believe.
God
loves human beings; why, I don’t think I will ever understand that
one, but HE does and that is a fact. That the preaching of the Gospel
and our salvation from sins brings pleasure to our creator is
truly amazing considering the fact that we in and of ourselves don’t
deserve it, but it is what it is.
HEAVY
thoughts, very HEAVY! But, think of how God has enlightened our life
through the Gospel and how HE has removed the weight of sin from our
lives. Somehow, I just can’t stop thinking of that picture:
One
is very heavy and the other is a little lighter
