ELOHIM: CREATOR GOD (HEBREW) The "strong one" who "constructs and forms".
Welcome to the Sweetest Name of All meme. I would love to hear what you have heard from the Lord lately and a name of His that just seemed to stand out more than another.

God truly is a Painter Extraordinaire! He sets forth on each canvass of our lives and paints the most exciting and beautiful pictures right before our eyes. Take a look at what He painted for me the other day:
This sunset literally took my breath away. I was amazed at the crane sitting perfectly still at the water's edge and the ducks politely parting the waves. The sunlight appeared to kiss the horizon and everything seemed at peace in stillness and confidence. This can only be attributed to the finest artist of all, Elohim, the Creator God. His creation astonishes me so often. From watching the sunrise from the middle of the ocean to this sunset over a golf course, the beauty at His fingertips is marvelous.
When I see the beams of light in this picture above I am captivated. When I was a little girl each time I would see sunbeams pouring out of the clouds I would think that was the way that souls knew how to get to Heaven. And each time I saw those beams I thought God was taking people home to be with Him. Perhaps that thinking came from losing my mother when I was 11 years young. She helped me to see the beauty in things and people that we would normally not see. I know that God was at work in our lives and the one who paints this sky just for me is also creating a perfect place for me in eternity. 
This last photo caught my eye after I saw it on the computer. I felt it would turn out pretty when I took it, but I did not imagine the use of light the Master Artist, Elohim, would portray. The light, which gently makes itself known from beyond the trees, gave me a sense of warmth and security. There is no way someone less than Thomas Kinkade could capture this moment in time with this lighting and I am not convinced there is a living soul who could. I find myself looking for the majesty of the sun behind the trees and yet I can't quite reach it. All this just instills the wonder within me for Elohim. Romans 1:20 tells us the intention in creation.
Read the New American Standard Version: "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. "
New Living Translation:
"For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God."
I see this and I know I see Him, at least His hand's work. This creation of just a few moments most assuredly points toward our Creator God. If we can see something this beautiful this side of Heaven, I can't wait until the Carpenter has completed His job on our mansion and returns for us, His Bride!
I beseech each of you to find beauty in your day and praise Elohim that He took the time to share it with you, His most beloved of all creation!
In Jesus Name, Chel
