creation

The reading tonight was from Genesis....explaining that God is the creator of *all* things.....he made the world and everything in it.

The world is His gift to us.....and he wants us to enjoy it and treat it with care.

So this is our world........as you can see, geography was never one of my better subjects and I do not claim to think that this represents any continent on our earth. In fact, the turnip looking blob that I was picturing as being Africa looks more like South America floating away from North America.

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground........God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.........Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in every way. ~ Genesis 1:26-31
