Creating Vs. Making
When God created the world, He did so to make a place for man to dwell so that He could have fellowship with him. He created something so that He could have something. He did not rearrange things already in existence, but rather He made something new. Our human tendency is to rearrange our lives in an effort to make time/room for something else, when God may be telling us to get rid of something altogether in order to "create" a place for Him.

- Jan 8, 2020Creating a Place
Creating a PlaceDeann Daniel uses 2 Kings 1-7 to teach us about "Creating a Place." This passage of Scripture is about the woman who was told to gather jars to fill with oil. Deann points out the fact that the oil didn't stop flowing until there was no more room for it, or until there was no longer a created place for it. God will move and flow in our lives wherever we create a place for Him to. Deann encourages us to create places in our lives for God to move.
