In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was formless and void, and the Spirit of God hovered over the surface of the deep. Then God said, “Let there be light,”
and there was light.
Genesis 1:1-2
We can go all the way back, waaaaaaaay back.
If we just stopped there, it would be enough. God said… and there was.
He brings the dead to life and speaks of things that are not as if they were.
Now go back to the beginning of little you.
When You send Your breath, they are created, and You renew the face of the earth. -Psalm 104:30
It was You who created my inward parts; You knit me together in my mother’s womb… Your eyes saw me when I was formless; all my days were written in Your book and planned before a single one of them began. -Psalm 139:13, 16
Then, perhaps, as a spiritual child of Abraham, you “believed God, and it was credited to [you] as righteousness.” -Gen 13
Now you are in Christ, a new creation. The old has passed away, and the new has come. Walk as children of the light. In Him you are complete. Blessed with every spiritual blessing. Heirs of God. Fully known, and fully loved. Fully redeemed.
Behold, what kind of love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are. -1 John
Things are what God says they are. We may not understand it a lick, but He’s the Creator, Author, and Completer. The Beginning and the End.
“Now I know that You can do anything, and no plan of Yours can be thwarted. You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel with ignorance?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know. You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. When I question you, you will inform Me.’ I had heard rumors about You, but now my eyes have seen You. Therefore I take by my words and repent in dust and ashes.” -Job 42:1-6
