God’s World Just for You
Genesis 1-2
In the beginning was God. The world as we know was a huge, shapeless mass with no light or living creatures. It was in total darkness with vapors of moisture covering the entire surface.
On the first day, God separated the darkness into night and day. Day would be the source of all life. He was pleased. Knowing the world was covered with vapors, He separated them to make the top part sky. He had made day, night, and sky, completing the second day.
God realized the remaining vapors needed to be separated again; they became land and sea. All sorts of trees and vegetation grew on the land. The third day had ended. God made a bright light and named it the sun, and the lesser light, the moon. In the heavens, He put all the stars that would brighten the night and also control the seasons— winter, spring, summer, and fall—all the seasons we enjoy today. This marked the end of the fourth day.
