For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving.
- 1 Timothy 4:4 (NKJV)
Everything God created is good.
But what about that mean guy down the street, he’s not good at all!
God created him good; it was the devil’s influence that turned him bad.
What about spiders and snakes?
What about viruses and germs?
I found that much of the internet slices and dices these words to be about everything from animals to alcohol, from favors to food, from Gnostic heresy to Jewish doctrine.
Receive everything with a thankful heart, even the hard stuff, because it is going to be used for good somehow.
Even the spiders are precious to Him.
While it pains me to admit it, some spiders do good.
So today I am thankful for spiders – as much as they freak me out, they too are God’s creation.
