From Genesis 1:1-5: “When God began to create the heavens and the earth, the earth was complete chaos, 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.”
Scripture’s Holy verses
Breathing with His sacred love
Even before Creation acts
Father’s grace looks down from above
Planet’s vast emptiness
Moving from darkness to light
Eternity wakens with love
Father’s mercy always in flight
Favored, luscious garden
Inviting twosome to walk
Sinfulness spreading life’s darkness
Yet, Father’s love becomes faith’s rock
Harsh wilderness called home
Searching for His promised land
Israel waiting in exile
Father’s love forges plan so grand
Divine patience shares gift
Choosing Bethlehem stable
Greatest love story now proclaimed
Father’s peace sets Heaven’s table
From 1 John 4:9-12: “God’s love was revealed among us in this way: God sent His only Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.”
