The Creation Story A long, long time ago, before anything else, there was nothing. No land, no sky, no water—just darkness everywhere. But then, something amazing happened! God decided to make a beautiful world. He wanted to fill it with life, light, and love. And so, the very first day of creation began! Day 1: God Makes Light In the beginning, the world was dark, like the inside of a cozy blanket. But God said, “Let there be light!” And just like that, a bright, shiny light appeared! The light was so bright that it made the darkness go away. God called the light “Day” and the darkness “Night.” And that was the first day. Day 2: God Makes the Sky On the second day, God looked at the world and decided that it needed something special to separate the waters. So, He made a big, beautiful sky! The sky stretched far and wide, like a giant blue blanket, and above it, the clouds floated happily. God called the sky “Heaven.” And that was the second day. Day 3: God Makes the Land and Plants On the third day, God spoke again, and the waters below the sky started to move. The waters gathered together, and dry land appeared! The land was green and full of life. God covered the land with tall trees, colorful flowers, and all kinds of plants. He even made bushes with sweet-smelling fruit! The land was full of green and growing things. And that was the third day. Day 4: God Makes the Sun, Moon, and Stars On the fourth day, God decided to make a way to tell day from night. He created the Sun to shine bright in the day and keep the world warm. Then, He made the Moon to glow at night, and little stars to sparkle in the sky. They looked so beautiful that it felt like the whole sky was a giant, twinkling blanket. And that was the fourth day. Day 5: God Makes the Birds and Fish On the fifth day, God thought, “I want to fill the sky and the waters with life!” So, He created birds to soar high in the sky. Some were big, and some were small, but all of them sang sweet songs. Then, He made the fish to swim in the oceans. There were fish of every color, from shiny silver to bright orange. The waters and skies were filled with movement and joy! And that was the fifth day. Day 6: God Makes Animals and People On the sixth day, God looked around and said, “The world is wonderful, but it needs more!” So, He created all kinds of animals—big elephants, tiny ants, fluffy lions, and little puppies! The animals ran and played, filling the earth with excitement. But then God had a very special plan. He wanted to make someone in His own image, someone who could take care of the beautiful world He had made. So, God created people—a man and a woman. He named them Adam and Eve. They were to love each other and care for the world. God said, “You are my special friends, and the world is yours to take care of.” And that was the sixth day. Day 7: God Rested On the seventh day, after all the hard work, God looked at everything He had made, and it was good. Everything was just right. So, God took a rest. He didn’t work on the seventh day, but instead, He enjoyed His creation. He smiled at the sun, the stars, the animals, and Adam and Eve. And He told them, “Now, everything is ready for you to enjoy.” And that was the seventh day. The World Was Beautiful! And that’s how the world came to be. A world full of light, land, trees, animals, birds, fish, and the most special of all—people who would take care of it and love each other. God’s work was finished, and it was good. The world was full of wonder, and it all started with God’s amazing words. The world was ready for Adam and Eve to live in, and they were so happy because God had made everything just for them! The End.
