Can You See Me Now?

Romans 1:18-32 is one of those passages that I have always had a hard time digesting.  Overall I would be fine with it, except for that phrase "for they are without excuse."  It seems pretty harsh to me that because someone does not see God's invisible attributes and pick-up His divine nature through nature that therefore they are without excuse and given over to their depraved nature.

However, this week during my study I realized that this passage is not at all about a harsh, judgmental God.  This passage actually speaks so much to the love of God and His desire to reach mankind!  Think about it . . . . God so desires to have a relationship with man that He made sure He could be found in the trees, in the air, in animals, mountains, lakes, forests, oceans, the night sky and everywhere and even in the complexity that is the human being a.k.a made in His image.  This is a God who wants to be known and found and because of that is giving every chance for man to do so.

Pretty amazing, the creator of the universe wanting to be known by me and all of man.  WOW!
