His Creative Goodness…

YOUR goodness (Hashem’s) is running after your people and your love exceeds the understanding of humankind. And, though, we are dreadfully sinful and full of narcissistic desires, you keep showing your love, grace and faithfulness each day to every single person on planet earth through your creation and sustaining power.

What do you mean Dr. Dee? How does G-D faithfully demonstrate His love to all?

Let me list a few ways:

  • Are you reading this post? Consider all that allows you to read.
  • Is your body still responding to stimuli?
  • Did the weather show up where you are currently living?
  • Do you have water to drink?
  • Did or do the flowers and trees blossom, grow, and/or provide food/shelter?
  • Does the sea continue to vomit food and nourish humans and animals?
  • Do the lakes flow and provide living habitats for various species?
  • Does the air provide CO2?
  • Did the sun rise and set on this day or the days before?
  • Do you hear the birds singing and the wind whistling?
  • How about the rhythm of raindrops dancing all around?
  • Did the clouds form and/or dissipate on this day or the days before?
  • And the list goes on and on and on and on!

The glory of G-D is evident in nature and benefits everyone, including animals irrespective of one’s belief about G-D and/or their current social or economic status. As we examine nature, we get a glimpse of the artistic, majestic and awesomeness of the invisible G-D revealing Himself in magnificent and indescribable visible ways. We sometimes look at nature and take the beauty around us for granted. However, each day G-D’s handiwork is on display for all to gleam and appreciate. And, may I add to love, honor and worship Him more. 

Let me ask you this: What other god sustains as the Creator, HaShem? What other god desires a personal relationship with his subjects? What other god touches hearts in profound ways, protects, provides, nurtures and communicates? What other god provides salvation through Yeshua? There is none!  [Jeremiah 10:6-16]

The sun has not failed to rise or set as of the day of this writing in 2025. The weather continues to impact this planet, which He controls. The crops grow and nourish both humans and animals as does water. No one can say, I am NOT blessed of Adonai! The very breath we breathe is manufactured by G-D for He made the earth by His power and established the world by His wisdom. When He thunders, the waters in the heavens are in turmoil and He causes the clouds to rise from one end of the earth to another. [Jeremiah 10:12-13] G-D created and sustains all things for His purposes and glory.

So, the next time, you find yourself roaming around outside; take a moment to scrutinize the great outdoors and consider the landscape, trees, mountains and the birds.  Behold the beauty of the planet G-D has created for us. (Psalm 95:3-7) Thank Him.

Next time, you find yourself roaming around outside; with a grateful heart, thank G-D for the air you breathe, the plants which provide food and beauty, and the water, which quenches your thirst and cleanses your body and possessions. Worship Him.

Next time, you find yourself feeling lack; thank G-D for His provision and be appreciative for all that you have…not what you want, but WHAT you already have. You might find you are very rich beyond your realization. Fall in love with Him.

Remember, we serve an Immensely Almighty G-D who desires and deserves our worship, obedience, love and  fellowship. Get outside and behold the artistic landscape of our Creator with fresh lovingly eyes.  Glorify and reach up to the One true and living G-D who sent Yeshua for our redemption. He is Echad…His Creative Goodness endures forever!

A midst in time…

You don’t even know if you will be alive tomorrow! For all you are is a mist that appears for a little while and then disappears. James 4:14 CJB

Oh, how true! The sudden and unexpected death of my son has struck my heart in many ways and sorrowfully emphasized the truth of G-D’s Word.

The sunny morning of October 19, 2024 was a typical Saturday morning until about 8:45 AM. Just a quick overview: My son and his fiance went for a hike up Stone Mountain in the park where he collapsed and died (unconfirmed) of a heart attack. According to his fiance’, she caught his head before he hit the ground, no pain, no words, just one tear streaming down his cheek. 

Aaron’s last steps…

In the short video clip of him walking prior to his death, there is no indication that he was going to die in moments after the filming. In the clip, he is saying that they needed to pace themselves because it was going to be a long walk. He looked amazing in the video, so full of life, handsome and smiling. 

The day before his death, we spoke briefly in the kitchen and we had plans to have a family dinner either Sunday or Monday before I was scheduled to fly to Europe. But, everything changed when the phone call came that he had collapsed. I immediately jumped out of bed starting praying and texting all the believers I knew would pray, as well as the leader of the Community I belong to. 

My fiance and I rushed to get where we needed to be to see about Aaron. Once we arrived at the hospital he wasn’t there though he should have been. I “knew” in my heart something wasn’t right. Why was it taking the ambulance so long to get to the hospital? I believe he had died already. 

Once he got there, they attempted to revive him, and for a split moment we thought he was coming back when the doctor said they had a slight pulse, but the pulse soon disappeared and the doctor called it. As they were working on him I saw some of their work and there was such numbness coming over me that I can’t really explain. His fiance’ was with me the whole time and endured the loss of her future husband.  

But, as a believer I felt inadequate and disappointed that my “faith”, prayers and the prayers of others did not bring Aaron back to this side of heaven. We hear miraculous stories of near death experiences, people coming back from the dead, etc., and though I wish Aaron was still here, I realize that each person’s days are numbered. [Psalms 90:12; 139;16]. But, there is still that wishing, should-of, and more.. that I am still grappling with each day.

My heart is still broken and I still want … but obviously, not my will but the L-RD’s. So much more to say, but this is all I can muster for now.

Loving the L-RD, Yeshua and missing my son,
