| Let there be light! |
God spoke the earth into being. First, he said, "Let there be light." Then he separated the light from darkness and that for the first day. Imagine our great earth being created as God separated the water and the sky. God made dry ground appear and he called the water sea.
God was not finished. He caused plants and trees to grow. The plants and trees needed sunlight so God made the sun and the moon. He said the sun and the moon would be signs to mark seasons and days and years. God created creatures to live in the water and bird to fly in the sky. He made animals both wild and tame inhabit the earth. The trees, plants, and animals were to reproduce and fill the earth.
"Our powerful God is worthy to be praised."
Genesis records that God created all this in 5 days. That is 5 God days. It could have been in an instant or over time. We don't know. Nor do we need to know. We just need to know and remember that God created everything and we become a part of it when he created man and woman.
We must be aware of and care for God's creation. It is very different from the time of creation. Over time animals have become extinct and men and women have learned to live on the earth and make life better. The one thing we must never forget is God created all we see and know. Praise Him for it.
