“For
there is a proper time and procedure for every matter” Eccl. 8:6 NIV
When someone is putting on a big
show they don’t put the best act on first. There is a lead in to prepare for
the starring act. Creation up to and including the animals is the lead in God
prepared for the starring act – man. Man isn’t an accident that creation would
be better off without. Creation was made for man. God put everything in order
and then gave man dominion over it. The world today wishes to worship the
creation more than the Creator, but that is contrary to the plan and will of
God.
Cows and birds and trees are all
nice aspects of God’s creation, but man is special. Man was created with an
eternal soul. God breathed the very breath of life into man unlike any other
created thing. Man has corrupted that gift of God and pays the price of death,
but God had a plan of restoration from the beginning. God sent His Son to reconcile
mankind to fellowship with Him. Through the blood of Jesus Christ we can again
have the blessed status that first man enjoyed of being a friend of God.
Dear
Father, Thank You for making me and then sending Your Son to remake me as a
born again child of God. Amen.
