“Things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Two great truths we need to keep ever before us: God can make something out of nothing; He can also make nothing out of something. This is true of nations, families, churches, and individuals. In this article, I want speak on the former of the two—God making something out of nothing.
Where once there was nothing, all of a sudden, there is something. While we look at people and things and see nothing, God sees something. This is especially true of broken and ruined lives. How many times have we looked upon loved ones and friends and thought, there is nothing that can be done? But when God looks, He replies, “There’s something I can.”
It’s reported that Michelangelo, gazing once upon a huge rock, said of it, “I see an angel in that rock and I’m going to deliver him.” Thank God He saw something in us, when others saw nothing!
