FOUR SEASONS OF LONELINESS : SEAON 1


In my four seasons of loneliness i"ll be sharing with you a personal encounter i had with being alone. it seemed to me the world was crushing on me. i tried creating lots of things but they seemed not to function. suddenly depression started setting in and a feeling of disappointment arose. i lost the hope in whatever calling i thought i had before and thus i resorted to the following.

Turning to God 

Turning to God was the first step i took in my search for companionship and the revelations became a little scary. i discovered i never knew God ever since i was just a doctrinal christian who was just doing those things being  commanded in church but i really never had a relationship with HIM. 
i had a picture of God as a man with long with beard using the earth as His stool with a golden walking stick and ........ we all have our pictures before we go further lets study a little from the revelations i had 

GEN1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was on the face of the deep

it means before the beginning there was no heaven. i knew there was no earth but God was dwelling somewhere and from that place heaven(s) were created and earth was also created. i don't know the number of the heavens but looking at earth alone and the wonders in it it's obvious the heavens were not just a form without a plan.
it's also worthy of knowing that the world was not created out of necessity it was out of God's wisdom and love. creation was not by chance either, as some people also presume. creation is God creating  a reality other than Himself 



God gave it being as its efficient cause: and in doing this He called into existence a reality external to Himself. This externality of the world in regard of God must not, however, be understood as denying His omnipresence. God is immanent as well as transcendent. In treating of His immensity we have shown that He is intimately present to all His creatures.
 
 it must have been a whole lot of hard work in the place of design and construction of heavens and earth when they were being created. a particular school of thought believes God called forth earth, i presume no because David said in the Bible when i see the wonders of your hands which means it was hard work not as we presume sweat but lets take a detour and look at some of the wonders of this world put in place since creation.
  • God understands all languages 
  • he made everything out of nothing 
  • the whole essence of creation was done i perfection 
  • the mountains and the hills, the rivers and seas 
to be contd tomorrow
