From my recliner...

This has been on my mind lately. Steven Curtis Chapman had a song called "The Fingerprints of God"

I can see the tears filling your eyes

And I know where they're coming from

They're coming from a heart that's broken in two

By what you don't see

The person in the mirror

Doesn't look like the magazine

Oh but when I look at you it's clear to me that

I can see the fingerprints of god

When I look at you

I can see the fingerprints of god

And I know it's true

You're a masterpiece

That all creation quietly applauds

And you're covered with the fingerprints of god

Never has there been and never again

Will there be another you

Fashioned by god's hand

And perfectly planned

To be just who you are

And what he's been creating

Since the first beat of your heart

Is a living breathing priceless work of art and

Just look at you

You're a wonder in the making

Oh and god's not through no

In fact he's just getting started and

There's a whole world of life we can't see.  It's only found in a relationship with our Creator.  

Without Christ you live in either apathy or worry.  You either truly don't care or you are so worried you can't sleep.  

In my life, I look back and do see the fingerprints of God.  I see the fingerprints of God in the lives of people He is reaching out to, who just haven't acknowledged it yet.  There's many on my friends list that He has been trying to reach for years.  

I recall a book and even a video titled "I don't have enough faith to be an atheist".  I really don't.  God's done more in my life than I could ever share with you.  I can only point you in His direction.  You gotta see it for yourself.  Andrew, Peter's brother, was known for doing that.  Pointing people to Jesus.  For them to make up their own minds.  If you have rejected Christ all this time, I truly feel for you.  You may have turned your back on Him because of a circumstance of life.  But realize the truth of life isn't us always getting what we want, even from God.  Parents who always give their children everything they want raise spoiled children. Whom become adults thinking they are entitled to everything they want.  God loves us too much to give us everything we want. 

Just wanted to share this today.  Look at your own life.  I promise you, you too can see the fingerprints of God.
