Make, Form, Plant

Gen 2: 4-10

This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.

5 Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth[a] and no plant had yet sprung up, for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no one to work the ground, 6 but streams[b] came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. 7 Then the Lord God formed a man[c] from the dustof the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. 9 The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

God is active. 

God could have spoken.....and had it all "be", but he didn't.

 He chose to..............  make it, form it, plant it. What does that say about God? Well, it tells me He doesn't sit on his butt in a rocking chair! It tells me He enjoys making and creating......and gardening! He is a maker, a creator, and even a gardener, a florist, a landscape designer, a sculptor,and more. 

So, some things I "get"....like clouds, and coral, and water droplets......but then I look at the picture above and I wonder....just... what was He thinking? There are some wierd animals/insects/mushrooms etc out there in the world. If He is the Ultimate artist, and they are usually considered to be people that are a little "different" from the rest of us.......He must be WILDLY different, and what do I think about a God like that?

I like it!

I like having a God that "does" stuff.....it almost makes me a little excited for heaven....no way will we be sitting around on clouds! There are so many things I want to learn to do that to me that will be heaven!

What about having a God that is "out" there? Well, I think that if we are going to be around together for eternity then having a God with multiple dimensions will be pretty entertaining and exciting. I can wait to see what He has in store!!!!!!! 

I will bet He likes to cook too! and.......
