Let The Journey Begin

A thick cloud of darkness so dense it could be felt hung heavily in the air...suddenly, a deep rumbling echoed from somewhere in the distance. A blinding ray of light pierced the darkness as the first bolt of lightning cut through the darkness.

Savage winds blew aside the heavy veil of darkness that permeated everything. Higher and higher, the darkness lifted...while below; something new was being born. What was this strangeness that was coming to be?

A spectacular demonstration of creative power, but there was no one to see it...at least, no one that could be seen.

God watched as the Light he has just spoken into being spread further and deeper into the atmosphere...Good, it was very good.

* * *
Angels stood awestruck, silenced by the intensity that shone in the face of God. God eagerly stepped into the darkness, dispelling the darkness by the very presence of Himself!

Explosions of light bombarded the darkness with overwhelming force. The face of God beamed into the darkness, the light of inspiration transforming the nothingness that had always been.

Satisfaction filled every part of His being at the change that took place in response to His voice. Word watched as the dark separated itself from the light. Anticipation swelled within His breast...soon, very soon.

His journey would begin.

Day 1 - Genesis 1:3-5

On Day 1 God said "Let there be light" and there was light. God called the light "Day" and the darkness he called "night". And there was evening, and there was morning - the first day.

Day 2 - Genesis 1:6-8

On Day 2 God said "Let there be a huge space between the waters." God called the huge space "sky". There was evening and there was morning - the second day.

US Dream Academy

Founded by Wintley Phipps

The U.S. Dream Academy is helping our nation's children reach for their dreams. Through academic, social, and values enrichment, we empower those children most at risk of incarceration to believe in themselves and to succeed.

Across the nation, thousands of young people wake up every day fearing they may not see tomorrow. For those with an incarcerated parent, the future is especially bleak. Some research shows that the children of prisoners are six times more likely than their peers to experience future incarceration. Poverty, addicted parents, or the absence of parents and other supporting adults put still more children at risk of later incarceration.

Day 3 - Genesis 1:9-13

On Day 3 God said "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place and let dry ground appear." God called the dry ground "land" and the gathered waters he called "seas" and God saw that it was good.

The God said "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it according to their various kinds" ...

And there was evening, and there was morning - the third day.

Day 4 - Genesis 1:14-19

On Day 4 God said "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years...

God made two great lights - the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars...

And there was evening and there was morning - the fourth day.

Day 5 - Genesis 1:20-23

On Day 5 God said "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky."

God blessed them and said "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth."

And there was evening and there was morning - the fifth day.

Day 6 - Genesis 1:24-31

On the Sixth Day God said "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind...

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

God blessed them them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it...

God saw all that he had made and it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning - the sixth day.

Day 7 - Genesis 2:1-4

The heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.

By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
