We can’t go wrong trying it!

Posted on April 27, 2007 by Fr. Jos+

God created… in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1: 27

To complete his creation God chose to bring out all that God is. God created both male and female in God’s own image and no one – man or woman – was given a better share of God than the other. When God shared all that God was between the two, God saw the creation as beautiful with great potential.

Seeing the potential God said to both of them, to rule, to multiply, to fill, to subdue, to control, to care, to protect and to treat each other as equals and complementary so that what lacks in the one could be supplied by the other. God chose man and woman to continue creating beyond the days of chaos. God equipped them, empowered them, sent them on their way and only then God rested! The evening came, the sixth day.

Let us not rest until the day we learn to work with and together with people of all kinds – men and women. If God can, we can’t go wrong trying it.

True Religion

What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? - Micah 6: 8 (The New Revised Standard Version)

Right Worship

Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. - John 4: 24 (The Message Bible)

Living Faith

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but do not have works?... If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that? - James 2: 14-16 (NRSV)
