A Reason To Trust

Tonight as I was praying about Tebow's visit, I told God that I couldn't even begin to imagine all the things that He needed to do in order to make this happen. Think about that for a minute, all the things that have to go just right just for Tebow to even found out we've been praying for this, much less all the scheduling that will have to be done for the visit...that's a lot folks. I couldn't help reminding God that these kids were now seniors...in January...of the year of their graduation...we're running out of time here, God!!! And then He pointed out through Creation's story just what a master planner He is and how quickly He can get things done. I teach chemistry and right now we are struggling through how molecules bond, a rather complex event, and God created that in just one day of creation, it's taken my kids two days just to kinda', sorta' get what's going on!!! The laws of physics, the orbits of the planets, the ocean animals, land animals, man...each created in just one day and everything together in just six days. That's a lot of work in a short time. Not only did He do a boat load of work in a short time, His timing and planning of the days of creation was impeccable. Everything was created in a timely and orderly fashion...light first, land before animals, animals before man, He scheduled everything and nothing slipped through the cracks, it all happened just as it needed to.
     Really, when you consider God created the entire complexity of the universe in six days...and He took six days only for our benefit, it could have taken Him only a second really...5 months and scheduling who sees what and when for a visit from Tebow really is nothing. Creation just gives me another reason to trust that God is capable of doing anything, no mater how big, how vast or how much (or little) time He has.
