God takes Care of Us

God had no need for a master plan, a purpose or to create. No plan, no purpose, no creation can add or increase God. The purpose of the plan which results in creation is to express his glory. Creation has not finished it continues on to this instant and beyond to the end of time. It does not add to his glory but communicates his glory. The master plan reflects god’s love and goodness. That is the reason for his plan. The plan is not to benefit God but to benefit man. God gains nothing but man gains everything because our whole existence results from god’s purposeful plan. You and I were not created by pure chance but on pure purpose. We are part of the plan and it is our responsibility to partake in it’s implementation. Realising and accepting the reality of God’s plan and his purpose and control of every fine detail will fundamentally change our focus in life. We can be assured that we are taken care of, there is a purpose in everything, there is a reason for everything, and we have a destiny in God’s glory assured as we had a beginning in God’s creation. We are assured that God is in control and not the fallacy that we are in control. We are free to make choices but God is still in control, even when we make bad or evil decisions. God knows every detail of our lives, there is no hiding. We can convince ourselves otherwise but the reality is he knows everything. One of the most astounding aspects of God’s plan is the first cause of existence which is God. God is present in all of existence; if he was not, there would be no existence. Everything in existence, visible and invisible, matter and non matter, every living thing, everything we see, touch, feel has it’s existence in God. God is infinitely loving, caring, good, wise, truth, beauty, power and his plan reflects Himself therefore we can trust everything to God. God is infinite love that wills what is best for us, infinite wisdom to know what is best for us and infinite power to make the best happen for us. But we need trust, childlike trust in the Lords plan and in God himself. Like a child trusts his loving and wise parents, how much more can be trust our heavenly father. This is why Christ asks for childlike abandonment to the divine providence of the almighty Father who takes care of his children’s smallest needs.
