And It Was So
In the beginning when God created the
heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless voice and darkness covered the
face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters. Then
God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw that the light
was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light
Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was
morning, the first day.
And God said, “Let there be a dome in
the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” So
God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the
waters that were above the dome. And it was so. God called the dome Sky. And
there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
And God said, “Let the waters under
the sky be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And
it was so. God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered
together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good. Then God said, “Let the
earth put forth vegetation: plants yielding seed, and fruit trees of every kind
on earth that bear fruit with the seed in it.” And it was so. The earth brought
forth vegetation: plants yielding seed of every kind, and trees of every kind
bearing fruit with the seed in it. And God saw that it
was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
Genesis 1:1-13
Whenever God wants something, it
happens – “And it was so.” Just like that. It happened. And it continues to
happen, at His urge. We are told to be content with the things we have. Know
that God will never forsake us. Know that our needs will be met and that we
will not be left alone. Count on God’s Word. It will be so.
God said it. I
believe it. That settles it!
