Quite The Introduction!

Introduction is defined as:  a formal personal presentation of one person to another or others.

I love God's introduction of Himself to humanity in Genesis 1:1:  "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."  God chose to introduce Himself as Elohim, our creator.  God is establishing His authority and power right from the start.  He is the only one to create something out of nothing.  Think about that! 

Look around at His creation.  Smile at His creative genius.  Stand in awe of how He has sustained the earth and all He has created.  Then, proclaim with the prophet Jeremiah, "Ah Lord God!  Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm.  There is nothing too hard for You." (Jeremiah 32:17)

And believe.  There is nothing, no thing, too hard for God. To the One who speaks things into existence, there is no river too wide, no mountain too high, no desert too dry, no situation too hopeless, no marriage too broken, [insert your need here] that He cannot speak peace and healing into.  He is more than able.  He is more than willing.  He is waiting... open up your hands, open up your heart and turn your situation over to Elohim.  Allow him to create something new in your life.  He doesn't need much to work with, just your obedience.

In the beginning God... Your new beginning can start today.
