In the very beginning of the Bible, we learn about one of the things that God does—he creates. God created the earth, the sky and EVERYTHING in the world from nothing! That’s pretty amazing. But he’s an amazing God. And you know what’s even more amazing? This amazing and powerful God loves us more than anything else in his entire creation. In fact, he loves us so much that he sent his only son Jesus to earth to die for our sins.
We can live forever with God in heaven when we’re finished living on earth. Yes, God does a lot of things as Hannah, Caleb, Kyle and Trent pointed out. But the greatest thing he does is love us.
Some people say God’s creation happened by chance, but how could that be? Did your bicycle come together by itself? No way! That’s silly. Someone thought about your bicycle and put it together. Someone had to think a lot about beautiful flowers, singing birds and everything else in creation.
God is very smart. He thought about everything in creation. Look at how everything in creation works together. God thought about air, water, sunlight, plants, animals and people. Then, he spoke with great power, and everything appeared.
Think About This: God created the sun, the moon, the stars and the earth, but you are part of his most important creation.
Memorize This Truth: “God created the sky and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).
