God speaks the worlds into existence...
I see it coming into being.
Stars scatter light across the sky...
What an awesome sight I'm seeing!
I watch each planet take a shape
As His Word commands each to!
There's Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars...
Then Earth comes into view.
O, such a tiny planet yet
He decorates this one with care.
He separates it into continents ...
He places oceans here and there.
I watch a brilliant sun get placed
Into this wondrous Milky Way.
See it's light reflected by a moon
He places to close every day.
I watch birds debut the first sweet songs...
Trees stretch their branches high ...
The waters lifting waves of praise...
While blue colors the sky.
Animals of every sort and size
Come according to His plan.
Then wonder of all wonders!!
I watch as He creates a man!
He uses clay in his formation
O, but, man is not made whole...
Until God breathes life into his frame
Then he becomes a living soul!
Yes, I see it all as it takes place!!
Each design...each color scheme!!
O, what a unique experience!!
Lord, don't wake me from this dream!!

~~Author's Note~~
If a person believes in evolution then there is no “why”
in life. There is no purpose – there is no reason for anything
except to eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we shall all die.
There is however, a purpose for our existence.
We are not blind accidents of nature. We are not cosmic collisions
of chemicals. We are not blind chance circumstances where
all the odds were perfectly aligned. No, we were created
and since we were created there is by necessity a purpose
for our lives. We were created by God for a reason
that few people know. Even Christians often fail to grasp
this purpose – but purpose there is.
We were created to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever and ever.
God created us for this purpose, yet few people glorify God in their lives.
If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, then now you know
your purpose in life. If you are not, perhaps today is the day
of your salvation (2 Cor 6:2). If you choose life, place your trust in
Jesus, put your faith in His saving grace, and confess you are a
sinner in need of a Savior, then you, too, have just found your purpose.
This is the reason for which God created you.
Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens
and the earth.
John 1:1-3
In the beginning was the Word, and the
was with God, and the Word was God. He was in
beginning with God. All things were made through him
and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.
Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.
