The Beginning - Part 7

Creating a new life in me.

Day 7: Foundation relationships and Ownership. Our space cannot be maintain with our will alone, especially with the relationships in the waters below threating to drown us if we get too attached. So He does not leave the earth barren, merely a solid, supporting platform. Instead, he popuplates it with creatures. In our new life we are creating it is Him blessing our foundation with relationships, people that speak into our lives and support us. People we lean on when we need a hand or our spirit needs strengthening. The the Lord gives us ownership and dominion over them. They are our relationships to manage, we are resposnible for each one and accountable for each one lost. We have ownership and with ownership comes responsibility. He gives us all that is to support us, in every aspect of whatever we need. But we must also respect these gifts and care for them.

Genesis 1:24-31
And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruiful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground--- everything that has breath of life in it---I give every green plant for food." And it was so.
God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning---the sixth day.
