A Creative Trinity
Creation
Someone once told me that the most comforting premise of the Christian world view was, for her, the assurance of a beginning. "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth..." These very first words of Scripture boldly proclaim that we are not lost and wandering in a cosmic circle of time and chance, isolated from any meaning beyond fame, wealth, or consumption. There is one who stood at the foundation of the world, who with wisdom, majesty, and purpose, caused life and history to begin.

Hello Larry,
I've read the whole article and found it very interesting. What about the words:
"The outpouring of Trinitarian abundance into the work of all created things shows God’s covenantal relationship with all creation. From the very beginning, Father, Son, and Spirit have bound themselves to the world."
If one is bound to someone else, they take care of them and have relationship with them and it really makes one feel that he/she is never alone, never abandoned... It feels good. ;-)
You are correct Petra. God made a new covenant with us, through His Son Jesus, who died for us, and sent the Spirit(The comforter), to dwell in us, His people. We will never be abandoned, and you are right, it feels good to me too.
Take care, and God Bless. ;-)
