CAUSE
Today's reading: Genesis 10-12

"I will cause you to become the father of a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and I will make you a blessing to others." Genesis 12:2 NLT

Cause-to compel by command, authority or force.

It's hard to fully grasp the power with which God speaks.

To be able to whispers into being universes, worlds, lands, animals?

To calm stormy seas and blustery winds?

To draw men unto Him by merely speaking to their hearts?

But to cause, by the power of Who He is, Abram to become not one man but as many as the stars in the sky?

To make the statement to a nomad standing amongst his sheep in the village of Haran?

To speak into words what would change the course of history for generation after generation after generation?

And still He speaks to us with the same authority, power and force.

What He chooses, He will cause to come about. We don't need to worry over technicalities, our abilities or self-imposed time frames.
