Pastor Dan shares yesterday’s sermon on Genesis 1:1 ff:
We are almost overrun by all the goodness and abundance in Genesis. We have more than we could ever imagine or ask for from God, and we’re only two pages into the Bible!
Of course, this is not the way we perceive things. If you ask us, we never have enough, time or money or energy or health. Some of those are natural worries, and some is just our sinful nature. And because of that sinful nature, our response to worry is often to grab at whatever resources we can reach, to hold them tight and attempt to monopolize them.
[...] God says, Enough. You have the earth and the sky and the waters. You have the sun and the moon and the dawn and the dusk. You have plants and animals, birds and cattle and fish and sea monsters. You have the image of the invisible God stamped upon you.
God says, I made all this, including you. It is good, and it is enough. So stop worrying, trust in me, and take a day off.
