On the day of our creation
God made the wondrous nose
So we could smell what Mom was cooking
And we could sniff the fragrant rose
When we’re sick it’s always running
When we’re happy then it glows
And it twinkles when were laughing
And turns up at smelly toes!
But the best thing that it tells us
And of everything it knows
Is the air is always sweetest
In the garden where Christ rose!

Here in Florida where we have plenty of warm muggy days to contend with; I love to walk early in the morning. It helps me to gather my thoughts and spend part of my quiet time with God before the sun punches its time clock and begins work for the day. The Bible says that God went looking for Adam and Eve in the cool of the day. The word cool can also be translated wind and it is akin to the breathe of God that hovered over the waters at the beginning of creation. Even before God said; “Let there be light!” the breathe of the Spirit was at work. In that same way if we earnestly seek the presence of Jesus in the cool of each morning He won’t need to come looking to come looking for us!
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!
