Well folks, we heard that some people prefer the notes to the podcast. So, we will furnish both on this blog (or should it be a plog or a Blogplog). Below I will type out my notes and then share the video from this 11/6/2016. I recommend you look up the scriptures too. I'll put a link to Biblegateway so you can read them right online. Thanks for visiting:
God's creation is perfect in that God created it exactly as He intended to. Think about this -- all the things we create (we humans that is) have purpose. Even art that hangs on a wall has purpose.
Genesis 1:1-2
Genesis 1:26
God created us for a purpose. He created us to be good stewards (managers) of His creation. God created us to be His vessels. We carry the Spirit of God within us. We can have compassion for everything (no other animal can do this). He created us to be stewards like He is in regard to us.
Romans 1:20
No one is immune to seeing God's handiwork. DNA -- God's signature! We are surrounded by God's creation, His very fingerprints. God doesn't have a reject pile.
Randall Factory story -- if the knives aren't perfect the Randall staff don't allow them out of the factory.
Again, God doesn't have a reject pile!
Psalm 139:13-14 -- I am fearfully and wonderfully made. God made me the way He wanted me to be. I ought to respect this. God's fingerprints are on me. On everything I've done, experienced, seen; my gifts -- they are all over me (His fingerprints). We will see the whole picture of our lives when we get to heaven. We will see that God was always there. God never let's go of us. We should acknowledge God's handiwork in us.
Romans 8:19-21
God created us for life. The whole earth fell when the stewards fell (If a rancher would suddenly leave his ranch and cattle unattended for months on end, that ranch and the cattle would suffer. If a business manager/owner left the business and didn't take care of it, it would suffer or be closed up).
The creation waits to be reborn. We have a glimpse of that. We got a special peek of life -- God showed us eternity through His Son.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Part of the reason I accept where I am is because I know where I am going.
James 1:18 We have a new job. We were created spotless through Christ as God's first fruits!
We are all that special. We are each a custom creation. We are intended for great things. God made you specifically for a specific job.
Ephesians 2:10: "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."
God created the work when He created the tool.
When we are reborn we have a job to do. We are meant to be doing something in our lives. When we accept that salvation we have a job to do. We won't be truly happy until we are doing the work God has called us to do. You will be most content when you are God's instrument. We have to be about our Father's business.
