Creation

In the beginning, when God created the heavens and the earth, Then God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. God saw how good the light was.
Genesis 1:1, 3

Reflection:
Ever cook a meal and when tasting it found how good it was. Or taken something from scratch and created a beautiful item from it? How did it feel? When we first learn how to do something and see what we created we marvel at it. I made this! And how proud we are in it's creation.

Nothing is made without help and the same goes for the earth. God created it and saw how good it was. Now imagine what he thinks when he creates man and women. To him how truly good it is. For this I can not take credit for, the inspiration came at Mass yesterday when a wonderful Priest mentioned this very thing. How when God created men and women how it really is good. And his point was that God does not make junk. And he doesn't either. We are all made for His purpose, just as he made the earth, and all that is in it.

We can craft and make many things by our own hands or by machine which was made also by our hands, so when we think about it creation has a start. God began the creation and through us we continue to create what we need to survive, what we need for comfort.

When we make things out of scratch think for a minute how God felt when he created the heavens and the earth, "how good it was."
