Subject: What light was created on day one? |
Bible Note: Greetings compudex! You wrote: "Without light creation would be formless to us. It has been said that the eye is the entrance to the brain." Thanks - I'm pondering "blindness" a bit. . . "This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all." 1 John 1:5 "For God, who said, "Light shall shine out of darkness," is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ." 2 Cor 4:6 How wonderful our God is, to let His Light shine upon "blind" men! Is creation not just a part of the larger story of God choosing us and revealing Himself? Certainly the creation of light enables us to not only distinguish everything else that He has created, but it gives us an opportunity to understand the difference it makes in our lives when we dewll in darkness. I praise Him for all who see and for all those who will yet see Him! Blessings, mommapbs |
