(Gen 2:7 NKJV) And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
I’d like to share something with you that God brought to my attention many years ago when I was reading His word.
As I was reading through the account of the creation, God showed me that everything we see around us, He spoke into existence. He said the words and it came to be. He said “let there be light”, and there was light. He said “let there be green grass”, and it happened.
But what He showed me was that He did things differently when it came to creating man. Instead of simply speaking man into existence, which He could have easily done, God took the time and made the effort to form man from the dust, with His own hands.
God took the time to get His hands dirty and form us He didn’t just say a few words and make us appear. He took dirt in His hands and formed us. Think about that. A holy, pure God, who knows no sin, took dirt into His hands and made us.
I would say that we mean a lot more to God than the waters, the grass and even the animals of the earth. He spoke them into being. He formed us.
So as you start your day today, ponder on the fact that you mean that much to God… enough for Him to get His hands dirty.
