God Created You
“What we have seen and [ourselves] heard we are also telling you, so that you too may realize and enjoy fellowship as partners and partakers with us. And [this] fellowship that we have (which is a distinguishing mark of Christians) is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ, the Messiah.”
1 John 1:3 The Amplified Bible
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Why did God create Mankind? Some people get the idea that God made man so He’d have someone to dominate and control, some one to beat up on. But God is not a dominator. In fact if you will read Genesis 1:26 you find that God made man to be the dominator. No, God is LOVE and love needs to give to someone. That’s why God made man. He made man (mankind male and female) so He could give His love to them. He made man something really special. God made us in the very image and likeness of Himself. He made us to have fellowship with Himself, for God loves our fellowship more than anything else.
God could have given His love to the angels, and He did that too. But giving to angels didn’t provide Him with total fulfillment. Why? Because the angels aren’t made in His image and likeness, but we are! Angels were created beings to serve a purpose, we were created to be sons and daughters of the ‘Most High God’. Enjoy that fact and fellowship with the Father God, The Son Jesus, and with the Holy Spirit!
MY PRAYER…
Abba Father, I will never understand how You could love me so much that You would create me in Your image. Or why You would chose to fellowship with me over the angels of heaven. But one thing I do know, and that is You love me beyond compare. Please help me to love others as You have loved me. Help me Lord to be what You would have me to be. In Jesus name, I pray.
Amen
