Light and Dark; Sky Above Water • Genesis 1:3-8
There was no light. There were no houses or people or trees or even dirt for plants to grow in. It was empty. There was nothing. But God was there.
On day 1, when God began creating the world, God said, ‘Let there be light.’ And there was light! The WHOLE world was filled with beautiful, dazzling, shimmery light! Then, God separated the light from the dark. God called the light “day” and dark “night.” That’s why we have daytime and nighttime!
On day 2, God made a place for the deep, cool water below and created the wide, blue sky above the whole world! God looked at all of that were created on day 1 and 2, and saw that they were good.
