//This is just my own personal take on the bible, this post is but a work of my imagination, so I would appreciate it, if you don't start a religious war, just because my statements do not correspond with your beliefs//
Very often we, as people look down on our own existence too much.
In this post I will talk about the first chapter in the bible.
Within it is stated how the world was first created, as well as the purpose of our life.

The Perfect Creation
1. The First Day: The Void / The Creation
For the first point of this post, I'm gonna talk about the first 5 verses of The Genesis.
Which was also the first day of the earth.
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:1 - 5
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty,darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And 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 he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
----------------------------------------
When the world was first created, the only and sure thing that was there was complete emptiness.
Just as you were first a fetus in your mother's womb, you were formless, empty and within darkness.
Slowly as you were formed, and born. The first thing you see is the Light of day.
"God said; Let there be light, and there was light. God saw that the light was good."
When an infant is born, they often come out crying.
We're told it was the fear of entering the world that caused the baby's tears.
But what if I were to tell you, that the baby is actually crying from the happiness to see Light?
The beauty of the first Good thing God has made, the Light.
Would you believe me? It is said that When a baby is born, it has all the brain cells still intact
and as we grow older, our brain cells starts to deteriorate. If so, is it not only relevant that the baby's first cry would be from Joy and not Fear?
Very often, when one is surrounded by darkness and feeling of depression.
The tears of pain and sorrow starts to flow.
It is after the acceptance of the pain, that a person truly grows when he is finally able to seek the joy of the Light.

2. The Second Day: The Seas / The Teachings
On the second day, God separated the seas and the sky.
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:6 - 8
And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
----------------------------------------
On the second day, God separated the waters from water. And created the sky and the seas.
Within the bible it is often stated that God will help you through every storm and raging seas.
The reason is because he created it, and like all things He create, He has control over it.
Just as a baby grows up to become a toddler, He/She would have to go with the flow of the world.
Like the ever moving seas, he is brought forth to learn anything and everything around him.
As I said, this doesn't apply simply to them,
as people we'll often face storms and seas in life that would make us grow and learn evermore.
----------------------------------------
Within the bible, we are also very often taught we reap what we sow.
Here's the theory of it. The first thing God did on the Third day,
was separate the seas into groups to form Land.
This land, is the path God has created for the child whose grown up to become a teenager.
It is the most decisive point on the child's life where he/she is given the chance to choose the path God as set for them. It is also in this time, that seeds begin to get planted within his/her life.
This is the land that God has prepared for you and the seeds and trees planted for your future.
Within the land lies not only beauty, dreams, visions. but it also houses temptation and dead-end paths.
It is often unknown if the choices we choose in life are correct or not, unknown if the seeds we plant would yield good fruits or poison.
That is the most important part of a person's life. It is the time when God opens the land for the child the freedom to choose. But if it is the path God set for you that you are looking for, than you must first seek God.
4. The Fourth Day: The Stars / The Growth
Within the bible it is often stated that God will help you through every storm and raging seas.

3. The Third Day: The Land/ The Path
On the Third day, God created the earth and the seeds.
----------------------------------------
And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good. Then 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 it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
On the Third day, God created the earth and the seeds.
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:9 - 13
----------------------------------------

4. The Fourth Day: The Stars / The Growth
On the Forth day, God created the date; the sun, the moon and the stars.
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:13 - 19
And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. 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. God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
----------------------------------------
God created the Sun and the Moon. In the previous points, seeds were planted but to make them grow requires the Sunlight.
Similar to the beliefs of the olden days. The Sun can be associated to a father, a person who comes during the day and gives you whatever you require. The Moon whose rays are given to her by the Sun can be associated to a mother, the loving heart of the child even when the whole world is engulfed in darkness. And the stars are the family members.
As God told Abraham in Genesis 15:5
He took him outside and said, "Look up at the sky and count the stars--if indeed you can count them." Then he said to him, "So shall your offspring be."
Those stars are your family member that are always there, far yet forever visible.
These are the ones that grows that seeds of your life. Whether good or bad, it is the Sun, the Moon and the Stars that give way to your life as well as light your way to the future.
The Sun and Moon can refer to anyone closest to you, not needing to be a parent, it can be a best friend that have led you through all the hardships of life. The ones that helps you grow the seeds sowed in your life.

5. The Fifth Day: The Birds / The Dreams
On the Fifth day, God created birds to fill the skies.
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:20-23
And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 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.
----------------------------------------
These little creatures that God has created and place in your life, are the ones that soar the skies like birds, like the people around you who you admire and adore, to the idols and stars you see on TV or the people you read in magazines, they're the ones that you wish ever so much to chase after, to admire, to become or to surpass.
In reality, seeds and pollen are often not planted/carried by people but by animals namely birds. Similarly these are the seeds of purpose in your life, to ever grow in number and maybe one day bear fruits of your destiny.

6. The Sixth Day: The Final Creation
6A - The Bonds
On the Sixth day, God created the animals and finally Man.
----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:24-25
And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
----------------------------------------
These creatures of the earth God created represents the people in your life.
Similar to how the birds spread seeds in your life, as do the animals. But to each according to their kinds.
As we grow up in life, we often meet not only friends who help us grow and prosper.
but enemies as well. Like the predators of the earth, these fearsome creatures who come to destroy your life. Are indeed created for that purpose, to break you so that you may become stronger.

6B - The Perfect Creation
----------------------------------------
Genesis 1:26 - 31
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
----------------------------------------
Finally at near the end of the sixth day God created man in his image and likeness.
I tell you this now, that WE were created as the final most perfect creation of God.
As we were born out of a mother's womb, just as the world was first born outside of nothing to experience the light. God separated the waters to form the sky and seas and created land.
Genesis 2:7
Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
We were created from the land itself. Molded out of dust and dirt, and whatsmore approximately 60% of our body is water. That is about as much water we have on earth divided by the land. Is it not clear, that we are indeed the greatest creation God has made? For us to be the sun, the moon, the sky, stars, the land the seeds that grow and the animals that live.
We are the embodiment and the final creation of God, consisting of all the works he did in the past 5 days.
It is also on this sixth day, that God gave us the purpose of our lives to rule the world, its food, its creatures and everything within it. In this entire chapter, the very first page of the bible. It's not simply just telling you of the creation of man, but the growth as well. From darkness to light, created from water and land, we are as bright as the sun, we can soar like eagles and still live life the way God has created us to live.
Our purpose in life was given to us the moment we were born into this world.
Who are you to say that you are unimportant?
When you are the single most perfect creation on this planet.
Who are you to say that you are lost?
When the land you are on and the seas you face are all part of your life to make you grow and prosper.
You are created with a Godly purpose, you need only seek it.
As the final creation of God, we are given the power to live this life he has given us.
We were born out of nothing, but we were given everything.
Oh Perfect Creation, Don't Take Your Life For Granted.
You were born for a purpose. It just depends if you want to live for that purpose or not.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

You were born for a purpose. It just depends if you want to live for that purpose or not.
