creation

Gen 1:3-5 And God said,"let there be light," and there was light.
God saw that the light was good, and he separated it from the darkness.
God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning- the second day.

As I looked through my photos and saw this one, I remembered a sharing by Zhong Jie.
Apparently, in the original text, the words for light and darkness were "order" and "chaos" respectively.
Hm.. before order, there was chaos. Curious. Order was created by God.


I liked this photo because of the way dark clouds nearly frame the photo.
Trying to strangulate, to snuff out the light, the hope.
But they outline the lightsource, in a pretty counter-productive fashion.
Indeed, a light at the end of the tunnel never looked that significant from outside the tunnel.

Well, what an opportunity to look at the bible again. Paul explained this picture nearly 2000 years ago.
5But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is He? (I am speaking in human terms.)
6May it never be! For otherwise, how will God judge the world?
7But if through my lie the truth of God abounded to His glory, why am I also still being judged as a sinner?
8And why not say (as we are slanderously reported and as some claim that we say), "Let us do evil that good may come"? Their condemnation is just.

Consider!
