it is the sword by which a clear divide is made between darkness and light
An egregious oversight to the calculations of our discoveries is discrediting God of creation, by similar inadequacy to excluding invisible light rays from the spectrum of light in spite of their felt evidence. In denial of an omnipotent creator, we are threatened by the existence of God whom we associate with the limiting agents of law and sin and whom we fear would spoil our self-exploratory inquisitions to much promised lead to controls when our consciousness is distant from Him. Equally disturbing is the exclusion, emphasized by invisibility, of evidence pointing to the existence of a supreme God. Powerful are the witnesses of God’s creation seen in the interwoven preset conditions and mechanisms without which our entire humanity would spin to an unalterable disarray, escaping the harder question about our existence and its purpose. Evidenced by the basic elements with which we breathe, to the preciseness of the angular bonding between hydrogen and oxygen molecules in life-giving water, the earth’s placement in relationship to the sun, and the constant laws that ground our physical bodies in gravity with an unlimited outlook into galaxies in a never-ending universe, expanding at an ever-accelerating rate. God’s world is meticulously made.

God who is capable of putting the world together in six days by His word, is also able to establish the proof of His work, most notable in the birth of His Son Jesus Christ whom He sent in human form, and sacrificed on the cross, so that His resurrection maybe witnessed by many who would become the living proof of His creation. A testament to Jesus’ life remains to be the most viable evidence of the story of creation. By God’s appearance in the flesh, Jesus has been given the authority of our destinies, promising a similar spiritual creation of us that is more reflective of His image. God’s aspiration for perfect beings had to do away with the more mechanical aspect of earthly decaying humans, by a more complete being in which the constraint of death seen in the regrettable design of Adam and Eve in the story of creation is abolished by the resurrection of Christ from death. The invincibility to death presented in Jesus Christ extended to our lives as spiritual beings, worn by those whom would later adopt Jesus as their God—who catachrestically speaking— “bear the groans of a new liberty into eternal life in heaven.” (Romans 8:20), the promise of an even greater creation from that in which we now experience.
Before we subdued our climates to escape the late serotinals for an early greenhouse harvest, the universe continues to operate in due seasons. The apple tree will always yield its fruit in the winter, by the same cycles in which its parent tree grew, relying on water, air, and sun to branch the luscious flowers that birds, bees, and animals feed on. The primeval will always bring the rain where rivers run and trees blossom. A greater truth emerges from the budding of the apple tree, the burial of the seed, more symbolic of the meaning about our life and death enters into our consciousness. A much higher wisdom of a creator must be attributed to God, who has commanded life from an inert seed: “Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place, that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?” Job (38:12), were God’s words to Job whose testimony to God’s creation weathered grievous tribulations in all aspects of his life, whom God later restored by faith.
It may be worthwhile to consider the words behind the great designer of the universe, who took a far greater interest in our humanity than in any other creation. God has greater plan for our future, requiring belief in more than the fictitious façade we now chase in toiles and labors away from His truth, often mounting to nothing more than a psychological insignificance of passing vanities. Untamed timely pursuits to answers about life impacts our individual lives the most, when not aided by God’s guidance and words, risking costly retreats to what has long been established about His creation

II. Life: A Poem
“For You have delivered my soul from death, have you not kept my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?”(Psalms 56:13)
To the miracle of resurrection of Jesus Christ, in which light-giving life was not dwindled by death.
I recall many experiences in life that have made lasting and powerful impressions on me: being caught in a powerful blizzard of rain or snow with a sense of helplessness to the forces of nature; feeling the warm exuberance of the slowly ascending ball of fire during sunrise on top of a high mountain while watching the amazing sun rise in the distance. Such experiences bring much sense to our lives by the awe it instills to our perception of the greater universe that surrounds us. A much similar awe is felt by the Holy Spirit when praying to Jesus that all things in life fade to the background with whom encounters changes lives forever: “But we all beholding the glory of the Lord with open face, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord.” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
I dedicate this poem about life to His Majesty, Jesus Christ, whom I owe my life to. “For we didn’t cunningly devise fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye witnesses of His Holy Majesty.” (2 Peter 1:16).
Through life’s joys and maladies,
In times of hope and times of uncertainty,
Through trials and tribulations in incomprehensible tragedies,
In cowardly control and invisible forces of evil capacity,
By winning and losing in illusory moments of arriving,
For continuous strife to sensational exaggeration and ambivalent dismay,
By strengths and weaknesses of things achieved and others depriving,
For contempt and in fulfillment, through fleeting perishables and lasting decay,
As powerful gentleness and weak violence,
To a life-giving breath in tightly interwoven creations,
As scathing scorn and praise leading to an immutable silence,
To the blue print of self-organizing molecules living to cessation,
In the mystery of human consciousness with its pursuit of survival,
Through uninterruptible cycles gravitating a tirelessly rotating earth,
By the law of death to a life-giving seed and life-fostering tree revival,
To the miracle of Jesus Christ, in which life was not dwindled by death.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame
