Shall We Ponder

The Creator’s Love

By Lisa BarrettoPublished 3 years ago 4 min read

There in the quiet of Himself in the splendor of His Realm in the highest heaven on high, He began to write in the brilliance of Him.

He began to write… a Story.

Not just any Story, but a Story about Himself through the Transparency of a Love that is everlasting to everlasting.

Everlasting I say because in Him is the Beginning of Beginnings of His Story that already is.

But what is His Story that He chose to write about Himself? To take His pen and unveil His Truth? His heart?

For in that sacred moment, The One chose to pen a story of a Love that would birth itself in Eden, The Garden of Heaven where His Word Adam, would begin the journey of His Story that all may come to see and know.

Ahhh, but let us Selah (pause) for a moment, for I am getting ahead of myself.

You see, before Adam, was The Word. Before The Word was The Voice. Before The Voice was The Thought, (His Intention) and before His Intention, He was and is.

He was and is the Pureness of all created and being created. He was the Only, The One, The Truth of all Light for Light is Truth. He was The Authority and The Power beyond imagination and comprehension. He was the Supremacy and Source of His Realm and all that exist (now) and exists (continues).

He wasn’t just The Was; He forever IS. He not only IS, He ever shall Be.

And that Beloved, is where His Story begins.

He began to write as He often would in the light of day, (for He is the Day), a Story unfolding and unveiling, for within, He gave Himself a thought, an intention to reveal His will that patiently waited for this moment.

A moment that began His Story not with a question, but an answer. For the answer to His heart’s call was and is love… for He who is Love, desires love as well.

It is He who created and creates all things that are Himself and of Himself because of Love.

And in creating that which is Himself; He brought forth into the heavens, galaxies, universes and beyond, created beings who know His Supremacy and declare their allegiance and loyalty to Him and Him alone.

Yet, Love desires love. Honestly. Willingly. Unconditionally. Transparently.

And in His desire He began with a thought, then an intention that would bring a voice, giving it a sound that would bring forth Word to become, for He speaks the language of Creation.

And that Word is Love.

Love. He not only IS Love, He created the Word for Love that is the heart, the expression, the extension of Himself.

A Love that would be known through the creation of Him. Through the revelation of Him. Through a relationship between the Creator who is Love and that which He created in Love.

You see, His original intent was to place His creation in the East of Eden to bring forth His love through His Word Adam.

Adam. The tangible manifestation of His Word. Of Him. Of love.

And for Love and because of Love, He brought forth companions of every description that revealed the character and essence of Him… companions of the sky, of the land and of the water.

Here in Eden, Adam would not only have companionship with them, he would have many moments in the cool of the day where The Voice of Him would have heart to heart conversations with His Word as they walked together sharing the purest of the Knowing being known.

It was good and well and pleasing to the One to have such a loving relationship with Adam that He decided that Adam needed a helpmate of Him, the Word. One of His own kind.

And so The One placed Adam into a deep sleep from where out of the rib of the original intent of The Word, He brought forth a Word, for there can only be One Word, and that, was Adam.

When The One breathed upon Adam to awaken him, he slowly stood up, paused for a moment as he opened his eyes and there before him was another Word of Him… flesh of his flesh, bone of his bone, Word of the Word.

Together, “The Word” would have knowing walks and conversations with The One whose Voice saturated the Garden with His love.

For there it was lovingly understood that the intentions of the Love of The One was to love and be loved.

That was truly the heart of His Story.

However, Adam’s reaction to the authority given to him by The One would change the dimension of Eden when unknowingly they (Adam and the Woman Adam) chose to submit to the words of another one instead of trusting completely the Word of The One. They chose to listen to “that voice” instead of “The Voice”.

“That” choice… that decision… would transition the world; but not the love for His Word and the word. For His intention didn’t change and has not changed.

You see nothing can separate us from the love of The One. The One who waits so patiently for His Word to accomplish His will.

And what is His will?

To love each other as He loves us…Word to Word; heart to heart; one to one; all to all.

For when we love His Word (one another) as He loves us, we are fulfilling His true intention that already is…

To sit with Him, talk with Him; laugh with Him, hold Him as He holds us in assurance; to experience intimacy far beyond this world’s created understanding of the realness of His love…

For He is love; a love to behold, a love to be held, a love to be cherished, a love to be treasured and a love to be adored…

You see, just as He is…

So are we…

Love.
