An Act of Creation

Have you ever opened a fortune cookie and really read the message from your heart?

Well, my fortune cookie said this today: "Choosing what you want to do, and when to do it, is an act of creation."

This one really touched my heart today because I thought of God as I was reading it. God our creator loves us so much and has a wonderful plan for us in this life. He made this plan available and abundant through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

Let's take a look at the first part of this saying, "Choosing what you want to do...".

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Genesis 1:1

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 .

God created us in His image and likeness. Genesis 1:26-27

"For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all thing consist." Colossians 1:16-17

"Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power; for thou has created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created" Revelation 4:11

God was the creator from day one, which was a choice that He made because it pleased Him.

God is Spirit and He created us to worship Him in Spirit and in truth to carrying out His will/purpose for our lives so that we may dwell in the house of the Lord forever. John 4:24 ,Psalm 23:6

"Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up." When God chooses you, become humble servant, deny your fleshly desires, and tell the Lord to "use me and have thine own way". When you deny yourselves you show God that you trust Him and that you cannot survive without Him. Thank you God in Christ Jesus for loving me!

"...and when to do it, ..." Written by the Apostle Paul, "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. -Ephesians 1:4-6

He showed His love for us by choosing/sending His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for our sins, while we were yet sinners. -Romans 5:8 This could not have be planned any better than how God planned it. He chose the right time to carry out His plan for the life of His Son. "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth." - Romans 10:4

Glory be to God in the Highest!!!!

Be blessed!!
