Every Little Word Is Important

God has so graciously given us His Inspired Word to show us how to know Him and how to live for Him. Too often we read it and get a message but fail to see the importance of every little word or phrase. For instance, when we open to Gen 1:1 and begin to read "In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth". Immediately, our minds simply goes to the truth about how this world came into existence. That tells us about Him - that God is the creator of all things. And later He would tell us that all things were created by Him and for Him. But, there is a message there concerning how to live for Him in there as well. "In the beginning - GOD". There it is. Right before our very eyes. The instruction that God is to be the beginning of everything. We know He is the beginning of our lives and that He breathed into man and man became a living soul. But, do we make Him the beginning of everyday? Do we thank Him for allowing us to live another day, since He is not only the giver of life, but also the sustainer of life? Do we recall what the Psalmist said when he proclaimed this is the day the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it? Begin each day recognizing the person of God as He is revealed in His creation without and the presence of God as He is revealed through His Spirit within. Make today a better day, because it begins with God.
