Let there be light!

 

Our scientifically trained mind is accustomed to thinking in terms of source and sink. If there is brightness for example, we ‘know’ that there must be a source of light somewhere – a light bulb or a reflector of light. So it is difficult for us to comprehend that God made the two great lights – sun the source and moon the reflector – only on the fourth day of creation.

For, the very first words recorded of God in the book of Genesis when the whole earth was enveloped in darkness were these: “Let there be light” and the verse goes on to say without fanfare that ” and there was light”! If you are looking for a source on the first day, sorry you won’t find any, for there wasn’t any!!

God is the source!

  1. My take: Every event takes its own time. Even God’s creation. We have to be patient.
