God is constantly reaching out to the persons He has created. He reveals Himself through all the wonders and beauty of His lavish universe and the vast variety of pleasures that we humans experience.
“The heavens are telling the glory of God,
And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands . . ..
Their line has gone out throughout all the earth,
And their utterances to the extremities of the world” (Ps 19:1, 4).
“Because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made . . .” (Rom 1:19-20).
“I Am,” the Invisible Source of all good, longs for His estranged creatures to respond to His many kindnesses and His attentive care.
“They all wait for You
To give them their food at the proper time.
You give to them, they gather it up;
You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good” (Psalm 104:28).
“They are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honour Him as God or give thanks, . . .” (Rom 1:20-21).
Worthy of their willing love and devotion, God endures their rejection and the ruinous results of their ways in their lives and in the world.
Because His goodness is absolute and perfect goodness, He has always determined to do more — to come into the world and suffer our evil. From beginning to end, it is with goodness that He relates to His creation and it is to goodness that He restores it.
