“And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day”.
Genesis is the book of beginnings and God instructed him to use the writer of Genesis chapter one to describe the beginning, as it is known bereshit.
God then describes the creation of all things and will say in detail how God created each one of them one day after another.
At the end of each day God touches the writer to express what he felt when God looked at his creation. And God saw that it was good. What God had done their work day, it was pleasurable, God was pleased it did, even on the first day God created light and can see that all around was chaos, but God looked and saw that the light that he had created was good.
God then continues day after day putting order to chaos, arranging all things, getting everything ready for the grand finale of creation, the arrival of man.
Then on the sixth day God created every living soul, all cattle, creeping things and beasts after their kind, and God creates man and woman. But God acts differently when creating man and woman. Until then we see that God was working only with His word, God says there and what was created, but in creating man and woman God literally puts their hands dirty, or better, in the mud, and makes man in His image and according His likeness. Shortly after that God sees all the animals have their female and then make the first surgery removing a rib of the man and the woman creating. Now yes, everything was full.
And God looks at everything He had made and think that everything was not just good, but God sees everything was very good.
When contemplating the creation God has pleased God so loved what he had created. This is exactly what I want to say here today. God loves what He has created. The man and woman are God's creatures and are very loved by Him as we see throughout Scripture.
That is why God, after man sinned, raises men, changes to separate stories for himself a people to provide through these people the Messiah, the Savior, who reconnect man to God as it was in the beginning.
I am saying this to you to be aware that every sheep you have in the church in which you are serving as a pastor is a beloved creature of God and you were placed there to feed and take care of this sheep until the day that the Lord prompts beads each.
In the midst of thy flock sheep exist weak, sick sheep, sheep do not develop, but they are all sheep and should be fed and cared for.
God did not put the flock to explore and eat the fat of the sheep. You should take care. You must give an account to God of every sheep, every one of them.
When you come before God, the Lord, the Judge will ask accounts. Ask to see your hands and want to see how you was steward of what has been given to do.
God loves what He has created and will not tolerate pastors who eat fat sheep, pastors who exploit the flock, shepherds leave the sheep starve to fatten your ego. The only pride of a pastor is to be a strong and sheep walking in total obedience to God. You should be proud when you see a sheep weak he could hardly walk and is now running. You should be proud when you see a sheep that demanded attention, now supporting others in walking. This should be your pride.
God loves what He created accounts and ask you all what you with the flock that He created and placed in your hands.
See you!
