13 November 2011 - Genesis 1

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth
Then He said, "let there be light"; light shined forth
He called the light "day" and the darkness "night"
It took five more days to make everything right
Creating the sky, the ground, and lots of vegetation
Plus the sun, the moon, and more than one constellation
Then came the fish, the birds, and creatures of the land
On the sixth day, "man in His image" came from His hand
"God saw that it was good" is written here times six
On the seventh day, He rested; there was nothing left to fix

God was a worker who created things of value
To do otherwise would not be giving God his due
Ecclesiastes 3:13 says to find satisfaction in our toil
Whether we are pushing paper, teaching, or working the soil
But remember that on the seventh day God did rest
We must do the same if we want to be at our best
