If you just like me, have been praying longing, wanting,needing something. Or you have be suffering, struggling with something. God says am silent but not absent. I hear you and I need you now to hear me.  May the Lord speak to you, workout your patience and strengthen your faith as you ponder prayerfully to these words... Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried. Quietly, patiently, lovingly, He replied. I pleaded, and I wept for a clue to my fate, And the Master so gently said, “Child, you must wait.”   “Wait? Your say wait??” my indignant reply. “Lord, I need answers, I need to know why. Is your hand shortened?  Or have you not heard? By faith I have asked, and I’m claiming your Word.   “My future, and all to which I can relate Hangs in the balance, and you tell me ‘wait’? I’m needing a ‘yes’, a go-ahead sign, Or even a ‘no’, to which I can resign.   “And Lord, you have promised that if we believe,  We need but...

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth .” Genesis 1:27-28 Adam might be a real shock to look at today.

He decided how things were to be done and made all the rules. There were only two: Love God. Love everybody else. Do it with all you’ve got.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. . Genesis 1:27 There were only two handmade people in history. Genesis says that God “formed” Adam from earth and Eve from his rib. He spoke everything else into existence, but people He chose to build, to model, like a sculptor making a statue. Except that no sculptor ever was able to breathe life into his or her creations! Imagine God bending over the clay, carefully shaping Adam’s nose, creating each finger and toe, deciding how tall he would be and what kind of hair to give him. Imagine Him later putting Adam into a deep sleep, taking a rib from near his heart, and fashioning it into the perfect partner Adam had been longing for, the most beautiful handmade woman the world has ever known.  Then imagine being Eve and opening your eyes for the first time. Hovering over you is the shining face of your Maker, beaming on you with love and joy. You sit up and take a breath...
