So for the next 30 days I'm going to be doing a reading plan that is in my Bible called "30 Days of He Is." And it is basically 30 things that God is. I'm going to try to be on time and post everyday, but with my crazy work schedule it might not be every single day. :) However, the first one is He is Creator.
Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
I think that this first verse of the Bible is the easiest one to forget. I forget it all the time. When I get frustrated or angry. How many times do we complain about the weather? Or the temperature outside? How often do we get frustrated with other people? I know that I do all the time! I found myself today driving home and thinking about something that someone said to me days ago and getting angry and agitated all over again even though the situation had passed and it was all over. I found myself getting upset with this individual all over again. How easy it was for me to forget that God created that person just like He created me. He knows everything about her, and everything about me. This devotion reminded me that every person is created by God and we should love them because He made them. Luke 12:7 says that God knows the number of hairs on my head. And I know that He knows what is in my heart and every thought that runs through my brain. So the next time I start to get angry with someone, or I choose to think things that I shouldn't...I'm going to remember that God had a hand in it.
"God saw all that He had made, and it was very good." Genesis 1:31
