Love Divine

Job 38:22-30
22 "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow
or seen the storehouses of the hail,
23 which I reserve for times of trouble,
for days of war and battle?
24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,
or the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?
25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
and a path for the thunderstorm,
26 to water a land where no man lives,
a desert with no one in it,
27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland
and make it sprout with grass?
28 Does the rain have a father?
Who fathers the drops of dew?
29 From whose womb comes the ice?
Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens
30 when the waters become hard as stone,
when the surface of the deep is frozen?

I love what these verses imply, that there is a place where God controls all of nature. A grand storehouse full of adventure. He gives His attention to the smallest detail. If He does that with nature, down to the number of black spots on a ladybug, do you think He would leave the details that compose us to chance? I believe He knows us(read 'me') so much more intimately because He loves us most of all of His creations.
