Elohim – The God who Created Us

I’ll be doing a post per month, throughout 2022 about the names of God. This month is Elohim, the God Who Created Us. The One who knit us together with His own hands and purposefully placed us in the wombs of our mothers. It’s a level of intimacy that no one else has access to.

God Is A Father First

The God of the Holy Bible is a Father first. He is the God who puts the emphasis of life on relationship. His love for His children can be seen even from the beginning of time. Since creation He has always been moving toward His children – especially when they are pulling away.

Abuse

It’s a given that any form of abuse is not to be tolerated. That type of reality devastates my heart, but few things bring me to tears faster than hearing or seeing an animal abuse story. I’m not a weepy person, but I’ll do the ugly cry every time.

Abandonment

God’s truth is a lifeline for us and in this blog, I want to talk specifically about abandonment. It could have happened moments ago, maybe it’s ongoing or even decades past, it doesn’t matter; it’s never too late to be set free from the pain. If the pain still exists, then God wants to heal it.

Life Verse

I first heard about life verses in my early 30s. During my prayer time, I began asking the Lord for a personal life verse. I can’t remember in what context I discovered Jeremiah 33:3. Perhaps it was during a Bible study or when I was looking something up. I do know there didn’t seem to be anything unusual or supernatural about the way I found it, but when I read it, something in me connected with it and I knew that was my life verse. “Call to Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you do not yet know“ (Jeremiah 33:3).
