Not feeling included?
BECAUSE HE’S GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS….
Genesis 1:1 (NIV) ~ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
The Creator of this very universe had you in mind as He chose to shape the world.
Our Creator did not put this world into motion and then step away to watch how it all would pan out. Our Creator has had the plan of our existence and knew the importance of our lives from the beginning moments of His molding and shaping process.
I am not an artist. I am not good at any type of art because my brain will not allow me to focus on any idea or concept long enough to create good artwork. I can never seem to have a plan or complete direction in the area of art expression.
Any gifted and refined artist has a passion about his craft. His passion drives him beyond creating into a relationship with what he has created. Does the artist fall in love with his artwork? I would say that on some level he does. He has a motive to relay a message and captivate his audience. He wants to draw another toward his thoughts and visions. There is a purpose and a relationship conception. There is an inner beauty and expression that comes to the forefront of the art piece.
Our creator looks at each of us and proclaims His efforts are forms of love and passion.
His eyes are upon us and He recognizes that we are each different. He planned us that way. He created us to relate to Him, to draw to Him, to be complete in Him.
He created the world around us to meet every physical need we would have. He created our spirits so that we might have an inner need to know Him. He yearns for us to need a full and deep relationship with Him. He allows our movement upon this earth to be in purposeful interaction with others around us and that we might enjoy the beauty of His creation. We were not meant to roam aimlessly, but to be in community.
If your life has brought you to a point of feeling alone and purposeless, just remember:
YOU ARE INCLUDED!
More than that, you are desired by the Creator of the universe. He is aware of you. He knows your innermost thoughts and He remembers the day you were designed. He loves you!
Genesis 1:27 (NIV) ~ So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
Father God, we acknowledge you as the Everlasting God, the Creator of the universe. We claim that you purposefully created our place on this earth. We pray that we will be good stewards with all you have given us. Father, we see your hands at work and we thank you that you call us your children, your creation. Father as we seek to know you more fully, draw us close. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
