Hot Springs at Lake Bogoria, Kenya
You know the story, “and there was light”. For those that have no idea what this is all about; hang on; you are in the right place. As for the rest of you, please help me do justice to this and every topic on this blog. Basically what I am trying to say is, its okay to comment. I don’t bite.
Now the title of this article is pulled from the book of Genesis the first chapter and third verse and the rest covers the whole of Genesis Chapter One. I think this is a great place start. Seeing this is the first article on the Lighter Side of God, this is also where it all started as far as Christianity is concerned.
It looks to me like God had had enough of hanging out in the dark. The previous verse clearly says that the earth was formless and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
No; really. That must have been a drag. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you just get fed up with the way things are going on in your life? I mean; when gloom just stares back at you with every opportunity that’s presented to it?
You get up in the morning; take one look into the mirror and end up throwing your entire day to the wind as it dawns on you that you now have to suffer another day in the midst of yourself. That’s okay. You see the thing is, the Lord Almighty was in that situation and quite frankly, would have stayed in that situation until He decided to put His foot down and say something about it. Ah – its all about the power of the tongue.
I kind of picture this like sort of a way attending a live classical concert. All three hundred instrumentalists dressed in black tuxedos. Pristine polished brass-ware… You get the picture. Now God; like the conductor, is busy waving his wand… ahem! Rather Words. The earth is playing a carefully choreographed set back to God’s Words.
Tsunami? What Tsunami? At this point oceans are roaring as magnificent water falls within the ocean its self. Waterfalls as high as the the sky is from the earth. Again Tsunami you say? I don’t think so.
Volcanoes in other parts of the world are going off left right and center bellowing their smoke like a scene from Marvel 3D movie. The Great Rift valley at this point is suffering a splitting headache that stretches all the way from Israel to the Indian Ocean in the South which as its rocks can longer bear the load and something has got to give. You get the picture.
Day after day the greatest spectacle this earth has ever seen is tipping the Box Office charts as Angels are all perched up on the loftiest places on the most magnificent scattered clouds watch in awe the stuff that God is working on.
To the bemusement of the winged crowds, never did they expect to see it like it is when the color popularly known as green, starts rolling down the hills of clay, the smell of the meadows as fresh grass and all manner of green foliage covers all the dry land and the shallows of the tropical seas.
Just when they thought it couldn’t get any better the Lord God almighty stretches out and sucks the color right out of the light spectrum and spits it onto the plants and the most amazing flowers bloom.
Now that must have been a sight to behold. Nothing like no Autumn has ever experienced. Nothing no spring has been able to reconstruct to this day. Now, that’s the God we ought to serve each and every day of our lives.
