As You Speak
In the beginning was God. The creation He had yet to speak into existence was shrouded in darkness and water. In that before time, the Spirit of God moved across the void and the hidden world.
A voice echoed across the vast expanse: "Let there be light." Soon, the glory of God shone upon the darkness that covered the hidden creation. Day and Night, light and dark, were established.
"Divide the waters." A hand reached into the mists and pools and separated them layer by layer. The sphere that God had shone His glory upon was surrounded by heavens.
"Waters, recede. Earth, rise!" With the rumble of God's voice still traveling across the void, mountains, valleys, and flatlands burst into existence; and the waters quickly gathered in their determined areas forming oceans, lakes, and rivers. Upon this new land, God called forth the various flowers, trees, bushes, grasses, and herbs. Soon all of the Earth was decorated with the beauty of God's nature.
"Let there be lights in the Heaven's." Therefore, God formed the Sun-bright, warm, and constant-to govern the Day, and the Moon to reflect the light of the Sun into the Darkness. Lastly, the stars were hung into place to act as a guide across this new Creation.
On the fifth day, God called creatures of the Sea and Air into existence. Suddenly the waters teemed with life, and the heavens contained all manners of flying creatures.
Morning of the sixth day dawned, and God spoke once more "Let there be creatures of the land." So, the Earth produced its creatures to rival those of the water and air. Lastly, God spoke and said, "I shall form Man with my own hands."
God stepped down from Heaven, knelt in the dirt, and crafted Man from the same dust that was spoken into existence just days earlier. After the image of God was molded God breathed life and His Life into this Man.
God's creation was worthy in His eyes; therefore, on the seventh day, God rested.
