The Bible begins with a poem that tells of God’s intimate involvement with the universe. God speaking, bringing order to chaos and God getting God’s hands dirty when forming humanity from the dust of the ground. It’s a beautiful picture of how God’s involvement in the world in which we live. According to the biblical writers, this involvement was not just a one-time thing “in the beginning”, but a constant involvement every single second. From our breath to the energy that holds all things together - God is here. God is the very ground of being.
This life, animating force, divine breath is still a mystery that stumps the brightest minds today. We know it is there, but it cannot be seen. Paul, when speaking of this mystery wrote of the “invisible God” claiming Jesus was the image of the invisible God. But he goes further, claiming that all things have their being for him, through him and in him all things hold together. Which means that all things are sacred for Christ is in all things and all things are in Christ. It’s always been that way according to John and Paul. Immanuel then, speaks of the Divine as one who is Right here, right now … and always has been.
