Light Invented

 “Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.” 

Genesis 1:3 NASB 


The sun had not been created. 

It was not spoken into existence until day number four.  


God needs no sun to provide light. He needs no source. He needs no moon, he needs nothing to reflect light.


We do.

And all that He was about to create would need light.  No hindsight, no oops, the design was without flaw from the first word He spoke.

Who I Am

Image
  In a couple weeks, there will a song introduced into the worship service.  It is to be sung with a track and the words projected on the overhead.  I am familiar with the song, but without written music, it is necessary to know the musical track well enough to know when to begin singing, when to pause, and when to continue.   🎼 🎶 🎶  “I’m a child of God, yes I am.” 🎶 🎶  I’ve had the song in my head all week, and truths from it keep popping into my day.  Just who am I? We are defined by so many things.  For example… I am James T and Betty’s oldest child.   I am wife to Kerry Pinkham. I am the mother of two sons, grandmother to three granddaughters and one grandson. I am a sister, an aunt, and cousin.  I am a hairdresser. I am a friend, a church member, a work associate.   But so what? Do my connections to other people really define me?  Is so, how? I am challenged by the lyrics of the song we will be singing, 🎶 “I am who Y...

Purpose

“Then the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden  to cultivate it and keep it.”  Genesis 2:15 NASB  Before God created the first human, He created all other plant and animal life.  After He created Adam, and the garden, He put Adam into that garden for a purpose.   THEN… “… the LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him… The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.   ."  (Vs.18 & 22) Before the curse, there was yard/garden work for man to do.  I wonder what that looked like ?

Relational

God could have made robots.  He could have never placed the tree of knowledge where humans could access it.   He could have, but He did not.   He formed the first human, breathed life into the clay, and began forging a relationship with him.   Adam was made in God’s image. Adam learned language and communication as he and God named the myriad of animals that had been created.  There were males and females of all these creatures. None of them suitable for Adam.   Adam, a likeness to His Creator, is relational. “…God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.  So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.” Genesis 1:26-27 NIV “ The Man named the cattle, named the birds of the air, named the wild animals; b...
