On Tiptoe
The whole creation is on tiptoe to see the wonderful sight of the sons of God coming into their own. Romans 8:19 Phillips version
Do you sometimes find life a bit boring? Not our our grandson Alex who is anxiously curious about everything! On our walk this morning, he picked up every seed, pine cone and stick. When we got to the nearby fire station he peered through the windows at the fire trucks parked inside and then decided he’d even check out their mail! Can you imagine that the entire creation of God has that same curious longing to see what God will do through us today? No life is so not boring that tiptoes are necessary to see inside the wonderful things that God has secretly in store!

In His Image
Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
Genesis 1:26 NKJV
That we were made in God’s image is the first thing God said about us and yet the easiest to forget. Sin tempts us to mar that image, the world to doubt it and our failures to give up hope of attaining it. But Jesus came to restore us and to create through His forgiveness and healing a new person on the inside who will reflect the love and mercy of our wonderful God!
