Good Sunday Morning,<br />
<br />
Hi Jawbone,<br />
<br />
A theology of "Co-creation" reduced to it's simplest form says; "Although God does not need humanity to accomplish anything, God prefers to enlist humanity as a partner in the most significant acts of creation"<br />
<br />
This preference of God for "co-creation" is first seen in the Garden of Eden where God takes a rib from Adam to make "woman" and then tells the first couple to "replentish the earth". God didn't really need the first family to tend the garden, but God…
Good Sunday Morning,<br />

Hi Jawbone,<br />
<br />
A theology of "Co-creation" reduced to it's simplest form says; "Although God does not need humanity to accomplish anything, God prefers to enlist humanity as a partner in the most significant acts of creation"<br />
<br />
This preference of God for "co-creation" is first seen in the Garden of Eden where God takes a rib from Adam to make "woman" and then tells the first couple to "replentish the earth". God didn't really need the first family to tend the garden, but God involved them. God, didn't need Moses to save the Hebrew slaves or Joshua to "subdue the land", but God chose to involve them in tasks that were important to the God/man partnership.<br />
<br />
Ultimately, God could have devised a plan of salvation that didn't involve humanity (OK, I don't know what it would have looked like, but God is...afterall, God.), but God prefered the act of "incarnation" so that in Jesus Christ, both God and man hung on the cross as an atonement for all sin.<br />
<br />
Hope that explains it. You see, I identify myself as an "evangelical neo-Wesleyan".... the "neo-" essentially means that I have a more optimistic doctrine of humanity that Wesley did.<br />
<br />
the best,<br />
<br />
Sam<br />
<br />
PS: Of course, "co-creation" means that "asking God" for something in prayer, doesn't relieve us from doing all that we can within our power to make it happen. We do what we can and trust than God will do what is right. In the matter of having a baby, that shouldn't be too burdensome.... 8-).... Sam<br />

As you wait for and pray for this child, I would suggest that you meditate about how your life will change and ponder why you are seeking this at this time.... The more you tune into this the closer the blessing comes...<br />
<br />
You're on my list,<br />

I am building a "prayer list" of everything mentioned in this thread.... For you, it feels like wisdom in presentation and favor with those who can make a difference.... "Philippians 4:13" is a good one for keeping your spirit up until the answer comes....<br />
