The Greatest Wonder

"It's amazing, " I uttered, as I looked up to see the top of Taipei 101, the second tallest building in the world of with its 101 floors above the ground. People of different nationalities took turns to ride the elevator in order to reach the observation deck on the 89th floor. It took us only 37 seconds to reach the deck. The elevator operator said that we just rode the fastest and safest elevator in the world. At the deck, I stood at the glass window overlooking all of Taipei. Together with my husband, we looked at the beautiful buildings and bridges way down below. I learned that Taipei 101 was built within four years by the best engineers chosen from different parts of the globe.

But there is One whose accomplishment is truly marvelous. He created the whole universe. He made all the living things. He made these all, in just six days! His name is "I am who Am." He is our Father God, the Creator, Author and Giver of life. Nobody can surpass the great works He has done. We are His greatest creation.

If we are awed by man-made things, how much more ought we give all tghe praise and worship due our God, Maker of heaven and earth!


"It id absolutely illogical to believe that profoundly intricate designs have come into existence by self-generation. The more simple conclusion is that there is an immeasurably great Creator and Benefactor."
Gordon Olson

Privilege

If I had been told 20 years ago that I would be driving eight hours to and from Quezon province every Saturday, 52 weeks in a year, for the next six years, I would have said, "No way!" I have no concern, whatsoever, for anyone other than myself, my family and my work. I couldn't be bothered by any cause or project that would require my whole attention and effort every Saturday of my life forever.

But the Lord had other plans. Slowly, surely, one step at a time, He was drawing me inexplicably into the joy and wonder of being His follower and servant. He taught me to put His teachings of love and mercy into practice.

Today, by His grace, I go with a team of servants on mission to Quezon every Saturday, rain or shine, with much or little. It is with great joy and compassion that we consider our prayer meetings, house visits and trekking through new territories, praying over the sick and lonely, encouraging the weak and weary, and sharing our food with the hungry. What a privilege it is to serve God this way.

What and whom are you living for? You will find true purpose only when you start living for God and others.

"My heart tells me that if I have the happiness of being employed in this mission, I will go and not return; but I shall be happy if the Lord will complete the sacrifice where He has begun it." St Isaac Jogues.
