God of Wonder

Canon EOS 350D, f/5.6, 1/1250 sec

"In the beginning, when God began to create the heavens and the earth, the earth had no form and was void; darkness was over the deep and the Spirit of God hovered over the waters.

"God said, 'Let there be light!'; and there was light. God saw that the light was good and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light 'Day' and the darkness 'Night". There was evening and there was morning: the first day.

"God said, 'Let there be a firm ceiling between the waters and let it separate waters from waters.' So God made the ceiling and separated the waters below it from the waters above it. And so it was. God called the firm ceiling 'Sky'. There was evening and there was morning: the second day.

"God said, 'Let the waters below the sky be gathered together in one place and let dry land appear.' And so it was. God called the dry land 'Earth', and the waters gathered together he called 'Seas'. God saw that it was good.

"God said, 'Let the earth produce vegetation, seed-bearing plants, fruit-trees bearing fruit with seed, each according to its kind, upon the earth.' And so it was. The earth produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kind and trees producing fruit which has seed, according to their kind. God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning: the third day.

"God said, 'Let there be lights in the ceiling of the sky to separate day from night and to serve as signs for the seasons, days and years; and let these lights in the sky shine above the earth.' And so it was. God therefore made two great lights, the greater light to govern the day and the smaller light to govern the night; and God made the stars as well. God placed them in the ceiling of the sky to give light on the earth and to separate the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning: the fourth day."

GENESIS 1:1-19

"For day and night, thank You, Lord.
For breeze and sights, praise You, Lord.
For every cloud and rainbow,
every morning dew,
all this made with love for me from You!"
