from excitement, to love, to humilation all on the first day!!!

I get so excited reading Genesis Chapter 1! God SPOKE and it WAS! I see so much excitement in His actions. I don’t think He mumbled and grumbled, I think God was like a child creating a picture, constantly saying “Look what I’ve done!” I think there was a glimmer in His eye. This was His masterpiece. The creation of all that is wasn’t an “accident” or the collision of 2 particles that created an explosion. The creation of all that is was planned and exacted by Almighty God!
The excitement of Chapter 1 is balanced by the care and nurture of Chapter 2. God excitedly spoke everything into existence, then with an equal amount of care, He knelt down, picked out the perfect clay, and formed man, then put HIS breath into this very special creation. God then created a woman out of the same clay and used part of the man so we would always be “bone of my bone”. He had a special relationship planned out for man and woman. God didn’t speak me into existence, He carefully and meticulously formed me! That is too awesome to even comprehend!
How sad and humiliating to read Chapter 3. God’s perfect creation – His MASTERPIECE – permanently marred! I can imagine the disappointment in God’s voice, knowing that every time I sin, He feels the same way. Oh how I rejoice that the story doesn’t end here and that I have a Savior to restore me!
