underlying purpose



4.9.14
There have been days when I have wondered about the sun burning up or simply ceasing to exsist  ....but then I remember the fourth day of creation.....and I am simply reminded again that God  set the moon and sun there with a purpose. So, my daily bread for today is that His purpose is not yet fulfilled.....and I rest in that thought.
The moon sun, and stars were placed there....not just for looks but for a purpose, which makes me wonder about all  the rest of the "purposes" out there. When I teach my students about pollination we look for the "purposes" in the plant parts.....why is top (stigma) sticky? Why are the petals colorful, etc. If we are His crowning glory, each part of our beings also have purpose. I know about the book "A Purpose Driven Life", but I think here I am even thinking smaller......why was I given a propensity toward certain behaviors? Why is my hair stick straight (when God knew I love a little curl) He must have a reason......If I accept he is a God of perfect intellect, reason, and  .............            underlying purpose. It makes me think about everything differently, it gives me another lens.
May God bless all of your purposes today....
