“Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear” (Hebrews 11:3).
Joan spoke to her science teacher very respectfully. “Mr. Thompson, I really like your class and appreciate the way you teach. But I just want you to know that I cannot accept evolution. I am a Christian and believe…” At this point she was interrupted by her rude teacher who said, “Stop right there, Joan. I know you are one of those Christians who believe that God spoke everything into existence. I’ve heard it every year from someone who I bet goes to one of those kinds of churches. You believe the Bible is to be taken literally, and I don’t want to talk about something I can’t see.” At that Joan quietly said to her teacher, “Thank you for your time, Mr. Thompson. You apparently are very busy because you didn’t even have time for me to finish. Someday you will meet the Lord as you stand before Him. You’ll have to explain to Him why you didn’t believe in Him because you couldn’t see Him. You will indeed see Him someday. See you tomorrow, Mr. Thompson.” With that Joan walked from the classroom and whispered to the Lord, “I really do believe that You framed the worlds with your Word. You made the things I see even though for now I cannot see You. I can’t wait for the day to come that I shall see You! I love you, Lord.” It was the sweetest chat she had with the Lord before lunch that day.
For today: I’m so glad to know the truth about creation. I’m so glad I know the Creator. How about you?
