Redesigning My Blog...

I have been wondering about changing the design of my blog. Today I decided to explore my options. Two hours later I have selected changes but my options were so vast I'm not certain I have improved the look or not.

Within the past year or so, I have observed many things around me which have a vast variety of options. The list is endless but these are some of the items I've noticed which come with a wide spectrum of differences:

1. hair - color, type...
2. facial features - shape, size...
3. body build...
4. Foods - colors, texture, flavor...
5. Flowers - size, colors, density, aroma, length of life...
6. animals - size, shape, voice, coat, temperament, diet...
7. climate...
8. terrain...
   

All the things I've mentioned are things which God has designed with a myriad of broad differences. He has decided for us what will be our physical characteristics. He has created a plethora of options for what we can eat to sustain our earthly lives. He has designed great expanses of land and sea where we can work and play.

And according to Genesis 1, His creation is all good; His creation of humans is very good.

Do I have a point I'm making with these observations?

My decision today to change the "look" of my blog provided a tiny window into the world of creation. I had nearly endless options for LOTS of things with which I could customize my blog. As I evaluated many of my choices, I gained a new appreciation for God's creation. He designed this world and all in it with care and perfection. I am grateful that He did not allow me to chose the design of my own body but I am grateful that He allows me to have been created in His image so that I can express my individuality in small ways such as selecting a new look for a blog. And I'm VERY grateful for the clever, talented minds who have provided the program diversity which allowed me to "create" a fresh face for my blog.

Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
