WHO IS THE CENTER OF YOUR IMAGINATION?

Humankind is created in the image of God. This means that we are created such that we share or are partakers in some of His divine attributes. One of those attributes is our imagination. If you have viewed our podcast series on "The Nature of Evil" you will have heard that when we are in our teenage years, we begin to cast images. These images are only evil if they are used to visualize ourselves as being something greater than what we are. The evil is that the images are self centered. However, God wants us to see in His creation something of Himself and His hand at work in the world. This is known as general revelation. This is to see the beauty of the waters, trees, wind, wildlife and know that wherever there is a watch, there is also a watch maker. The prophet Jeremiah likeness us to clay and Yahweh as the potter. So who then is the center of your imagation? Cast your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith.

Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, open the eyes of our hearts so that we may see you and know you. Forgive our futile efforts to be somebody. Instead, let us, by the power of Your Sprit, lead a lost generation to You. In Your Name I pray Amen.
