[The Glory Unveiled]
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. [ Genesis 1:3 ]
Whatever God says is very important to us. In an apprenticeship setting, mastery comes by keen observation and application. No apprentice ever became a master by doing what they feel like doing. Their chance of success comes from their willingness to obey and if possible do and act like their master. In the beginning of time, our Master found Himself in a very chaotic surrounding, and instead of just doing nothing about it, he spoke the words above. Now, light is a very great advantage because it gives you an upper hand even before the competition starts. In darkness, there can be no victory and success. Light sets the stage for creation and orderliness. Looking carefully at the creation account, we would agree that God was very meticulous in His design and the execution of His thoughts. And because we are created in His likeness and image, we need to imitate His pattern. God spoke light fist. In our attempt to do anything worth doing, we need light [knowledge] first in order to see clearly the way forward. And then we need to be intentional about what we want to do. God was intentional about every detail of His creation, so that nothing happened haphazardly. Let us imitate the Father intentionally.
Prayer_Bead: _ Gracious Lord, Source and sustainer of all things, thank you for the opportunity through your word to intentionally imitate you._
