In Genesis 1 and 2 God creates a good world with the power of his word. Day by
day he shapes the world carving space and time for his creatures. Humanity is his
final work, created at the end of the sixth day. Humanity is the last of God’s
works. In his kindness, God provided Sabbath for his creatures, king and queen,
as a provision to enter into the glory of his magnificent grace. Creation is to be
enjoyed and used as a window into the goodness of God’s heart. An instrument of
wonder and provision pointing back to that which matters most- being rightly
related to God, each other and the world. Paradoxically, it is in rest that we grow.
