"Nilikha Kita" / I Created You (Gen. 1)

        As we look at the events and happenings during these times. We are tempted to ask, “Lord, if you are the king of all, do something! Are you in control dear Lord? Why won’t you do something?”
 
            Do you know what the Lord will answer  to the question, “Lord what have you done?” We will hear him say loud and clear,  “I have done something, I have created you, nilikha kita”. And what is  your reply?, “What Lord if you have created me, what Lord if you have made me?” And the Lord tells us further louder and clearer;  what He said to his firstApostles, “As the Father has sent me, so also do I send you.”

           In other words, Jesus  created us and sent us  just as how He was sent by God the Father . And what was the mission of Christ?  When He went to Nazareth and as he was in the synagogue he was assigned to read the scroll. When he opened  the Bible, he read in the book of Isaiah, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me. He sent me to bring Good News to the poor; He sent me to give sight to the blind; He sent me to set the prisoners free; He sent me to heal the sick and announce that the  time when the  Lord will save his people has come."


            If we look at the life of our Lord, what did he do in order to  make  “The Kingdom of God has come.”  What did he do in order to establish the Kingdom of God even still on earth?  He told everyone “Repent, be converted!”. And when the people repented, turned back from their evil ways then, the Kingdom of God started. Where did it start? It started in their hearts. And this is one of the things we ought to know. Where is the Kingdom of Christ? The Kingdom of Christ starts right here in our hearts.
