Crown of All Creation

So, my very dear friends, don’t get thrown off course. Every desirable and beneficial gift comes out of heaven. The gifts are rivers of light cascading down from the Father of Light. There is nothing deceitful in God, nothing two-faced, nothing fickle. He brought us to life using the true Word, showing us off as the crown of all his creatures.
James 1:16‭-‬18 MSG

Have you ever considered yourself as the 'crown of all creation'? This makes us rather special doesn't it? Imagine yourself as the 'apple of your father's eye.' We have all seen this in action. A dad smitten by his little girl or boy and nothing is too much for him. We have such a father.

If this is true then why do we listen to shame and guilt thoughts when we have nothing to be ashamed of. The renewing of our minds needs to starts here: I am my father's beloved child.

As we grow in Him He desires that we represent Him in His affairs here on earth. Can we show forth His glory? We can as we see ourselves as He see us and take up our mantle of His glory. Amen!
