Before Creation

In the Beginning

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty; darkness covered the surface of the deep. In that void and darkness, the Spirit of God moved over the waters, awaiting the divine transformation to come.

Day 1

Let There Be Light

God said, "Let there be light." Light pierced the primordial darkness, creating the first distinction in creation. Light and darkness were separated—day and night were born. God saw that the light was good.

Day 2

Sky & Waters

God made an expanse to separate the waters above from the waters below. The firmament stretched wide, forming the setting in which life could flourish. Thus the cosmic order began.

Day 3

Land & Vegetation

The waters under the sky gathered to one place, and dry land appeared. The earth took shape in its beauty. Then God said, "Let the land sprout vegetation." Green life burst forth—seed-bearing plants and fruit trees covering the ground.

Day 4

Heavenly Lights

God made two great lights: the sun to govern the day and the moon to govern the night. The stars were set in the heavens to mark seasons, days, and years. The sky shone with purpose.

Day 5

Life in the Seas & Sky

God said, "Let the waters swarm with living creatures, and let birds fly across the sky." The seas teemed with great creatures and fish; birds with bright wings crossed the heavens. These first living beings were blessed to multiply and fill their realms.

Day 6

Land Animals & Humanity

God created the living creatures of the land—livestock, wild animals, and creeping things—each according to its kind. The pinnacle of creation was humanity, male and female, made in the image of God (Imago Dei), entrusted with stewardship over all creation.

Day 7

Rest & Completion

God completed all His work. On the seventh day He rested. The day was blessed and set apart as holy. In wholeness and harmony, all was very good.

Rest & Completion

All creation is now complete. From emptiness to fullness, from darkness to light, from solitude to communion. The seventh day brings rest not an ending, but a sacred pause to contemplate the interconnectedness of all that has been created.

"In the silence, we find peace. In the perfection, we find purpose."
