I heard something really cool the other day.
Most of us know and believe that God created everything. I have known that creation was God's handy work for most of my life. I just figured that God made everything perfect and complete..and we have spent our lives messing it up. I'd be willing to bet that most people feel the same way. Well, i got a different perspective the other day:
Just maybe God created everything perfect...but incomplete. Then he invited us to join with him and share the job of creating. I mean he created trees and gave them the ability to create other trees, he created animals and gave them the ability to create other animals...and he created humans and gave us the ability to create other humans. God invited us to participate in creation!
As I was listening to this I couldn't help but look down at my newborn son and think of my amazing 5 year old and be so thankful that God gave my husband and I the opportunity to create.
