Pastor Daniel's Blog

I've never really blogged before.  So I'll have lots to learn as I get moving in this new direction!

I'm very excited though, because breaking new ground is always a joy.  I think that's because God made us to have this creative urge--just like He has!

 Genesis 1 & 2 tell us about the beginnings of God's creation and then fling us forward into the grand narrative of His glory and grace!  And almost immediately (1:26) we are told that God made us specially in His Image and that He made us to rule the territory of the earth with that same creative Spirit with which He birthed it all!  So we were made to create and rule!  Check it out...

"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the ish 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." 

Lord, as I explore this new territory and as I am joined by anyone else who chooses to read and comment, please bless our journey!  Let us live out the things of Your image that you have placed in us!  And let us press on in utter faith and trust in You until the finish!
