Time with God - Aug. 24, 2010

Tuesday 24th August

Genesis 1:26

Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."…Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

God's words spoke everything into existence except for you and me; He formed man with His own hands!

God desires so many great things for you and me. Many times we ignore how special we are to God. Life can deal us experiences that we never imagined would hurt so badly.  It's during those times we feel very broken and sometimes not capable of doing anything worthwhile. This is when we must remember just how precious we are to God.  He created you with His own hands and His own breath.  You weren't just a spoken word.  You were a breath from the almighty God.

God created this day for us.  It's His plan for you to enjoy what He's made for you.  Take time out today and accept yourself as the one God Himself breathed life into for His eternal purpose.  Look at nature today and let God know how thankful you are that He's taken such care for you.
