threefold creation relationship
Thursday August 30th,
John 6: 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in
him. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live
because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your
forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live
forever." We were created in and for relationship. We are related to the God who created us and
loves us and it is in God we find our life and ability to live and love in this
world. Jesus, as the son of God
continues this relationship and calls us into an intimate relationship with
himself and this creator God. We are
also created in relationship with one another.
The creation of the human family is told in the creation of Eve from a part
of Adam. We are part one of another, and
just as we were created in the image of, and in relation to God, we were
created from and in relation to, one another.
We are created from the dust of the ground and are created in
relationship with this earth from which we were formed, and we are called to
care for and love this creation. This is
the threefold creation relationship; Created by God, from the earth, for one
another in a loving relationship with all.
