Pondering today; Soul mates? Well … let’s see now, when God formed Adam after he was created so He would have a gardener to take care of the animals and the garden (Gen.2:5) he was pleased with all that He had made. Everything was beautiful and He looked around and declared “It was good”! Here we can see that in (Gen.chapter 1) the word “man” is actually “mankind” all the races were created. +But after awhile, God said it was not good for man to be alone so He formed all the beast of the field and in the air and brought them to Adam to see what he would name them (Gen.2:18,19) these were Adams helpers. Adam was done naming all the animals and there was not a help mate for him anywhere to be found (Gen.2:20) God said it was not good for a man to be alone. +Adam was sad…..God saw Adam’s sadness so he caused him to fall into a very deep sleep. And while he was asleep God removed a curved part from inside Adam namely one of his ribs “the appearance of the curve“ (Gen.2:22) +Well lo and behold….God formed a female from this curved rib and breathed into her as he did Adam to bring her to life. +Then Adam woke up and saw the female and was filled with joy!!! He said I will call you woman because you were taken out of a man. So as you are now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh we are one.(Gen.2:23) Little did Adam know that he had lost a little more than just a rib! God had taken the most beautiful part from Adam and made it into the most beautiful creature man would ever set eyes on…The female! +Yes my friends… we all have a missing part of us that we spend a long time searching for. Sometimes we think we have found our missing part, only to be disappointed later for one reason or another. And some have found that perfect missing part that will remain forever. +Now lets back up for a moment here. Remember what was done on the 6th day of creation. All were living spirits….not “formed” yet… but created. Now here’s where it gets interesting. On the 8th day God caused a rain to water the earth and discovered there was not a man to tend the plants and garden. So He “formed” man from the dust of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul. (Gen.2:11) +The story continues as before only this time all things were “formed” after being created. See the second earth age here? We are in the second earth age at this time. The third earth age is when our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ returns and sets all this earth back to its original beauty with all the souls living here. +Back to the subject now… (Gen.5:2) male and female created He them; and blessed them, and called “their” name Adam in the day they were “created”. Do we see the difference of being created and being formed yet? Think back now, we were created on the 6th day, and formed on the 8th day. Now if only that one rule had not been broken in the garden where would we be now? Would we still be searching for our soul mate? +All Glory to Our Heavenly Father God. Amen
