Gospel Moments (1): Creator God (Part One)

CREATOR GOD

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning,

God created the heavens

and the earth.

As we meditate on the gospel

we want to begin at the beginning,

at the origin of life itself.

God is God.

He is the creator of all things,

living and non-living things.

God created you.

He is the author and giver of life.

He is the one who sustains life

and the one who causes

all things to grow.

Where would

we be without Him?

We have been given the

amazing gift of life

and we often take it

and its giver for granted.

Other things cloud our

thinking and crowd out

the important.

TAKE THE GOSPEL

TO HEART

Clear away all thoughts

in your mind.

Wipe the slate clean and

center in on this one thing:

God who is your creator

and the gift of life

He has given to you.

As you consider these things

pray through Psalm 63.

1 O God, you are my God;

earnestly I seek you;

my soul thirsts for you;

my flesh faints for you,

as in a dry and weary land

where there is no water.

2 So I have looked upon you

in the sanctuary,

beholding your power and glory.

3 Because your steadfast

love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.

4 So I will bless you as long as I live;

in your name I will lift up my hands.

5 My soul will be satisfied

as with fat and rich food,

and my mouth will praise

you with joyful lips,

6 when I remember you upon

my bed, and meditate on you in

the watches of the night;

7 for you have been my help,

and in the shadow of your

wings I will sing for joy.

8 My soul clings to you;

your right hand upholds me.

In Jesus’ Name,

Amen.
