Words from Pastor Wally

Made in God’s Image
Imagine God’s creativity. Of all we don’t know about creation, there is one thing we do know - he did it with a smile! He must have had a blast painting the stripes on the zebra, hanging the stars in the sky, putting the gold in the sunset, stretching the neck of the giraffe, putting the flutter in the mockingbirds’ wings, planting the giggle in the hyena. What creativity! What a time he must’ve had.
Max Lucado says it this way in his book called God’s Brand New Idea: “like a whistling carpenter in his workshop; he loved every bit of it. He poured himself into the work. So intent was his creativity that he took a day off at the end of week just to rest”. And think of this, he wasn’t finished yet. As a finale to a brilliant performance, he made us. With his typical flair, he began with a useless mound of dirt and ended up with an invaluable species called a human. God placed his hand on the shoulder of humanity and said, “You’re something special.” A human who had the unique honor to bear the stamp, “In his Image”. In Genesis 1:26, God said, “Let us make man in OUR image.
I do look forward to working and worshiping with this month.
