AIM: God made everything. The aim of this lesson is to enforce the Creative Will and Purpose of God.
Everything that God created is inherently good. God Blesses works of His hands. We are created in the image and likeness of God, Our Father.

Isn't that simply Awesome?
Our God is an Awesome God.
Who can make such beauty? Such Magnificence? and all this for whom?
For you - and for me - for us to love and care and take care of!!
So here is what we learnt :
CREATION STORY :
In the beginning there was Nothing - no earth , no people, no sky, no animals NOTHING!!
Can you imagine that?
There was only empty space - it was dark - nothing!!!
But God had a magnificent plan - he wanted to MAKE something. He wanted to make Someone!! He wanted to make you and me!!!
So what do you think He did?

Our God is so great and so loving - He thought of us and decided to make the world READY for us!!
So here's what He did:
DAY 1:
And then God spoke in the darkness: “Let there be light!”
And right away there was light.
God found it good and He divided the Light from the Darkness .
God gave them a name each. God called the Light time "Day" and the Dark time " Night"
So that's how the very first Day and Night started!!
So the morning, evening , the night passed that was the FIRST DAY!!!
DAY 2:
On the second day, God made the Land and then He made a Sky to hang above the Land.
God stood back and took a look - He liked all that He saw and said, "It is Good"
And so the second day was over.
God then got busy arranging the Land. He decided to separate the land and the water.
He brought all the dry land together and called it Earth.Then he brought all the water together and called it Seas
When God finished this - He commanded the earth to bring forth grass, fruit yielding trees - and so he made lovely flowers of every kind roses, daffodils, tulips, apple trees, pear trees etc.
And so the earth had flowers, grass and lots of tress!
God looked back and saw that it was good. Morning came and Night came - that was the end of the third day!
DAY 4:
The next day, God decided to make the Sun and the Moon.
Sun to rule over day time
and moon to rule over night time. And it was done. The Sun and the Moon marked day and night as well as seasons.
God looked on and saw it was all good. He was pleased with His work so far.
So ended the fourth day.
DAY 5:
God decided He would not leave the sea alone and decided to make it even better.
He wanted the water to have life - and so it was - Every kind of fish - big, small started swimming in the seas!!
Splendid - don't you think?
But that was not enough - God looked at the sky - saw it was empty and commanded it to have life as well.
Lo and behold!! There were every type of bird- colourful and beautiful flying in the sky!!!
The dusk fell over the water and the sky grew dark and that was the end of the fifth day.
DAY 6:
On Day 6, God decided to fill the land with animals -
and animals there were of every colour, size and shape.
there were horses, pigs, lions, tigers, bears, even rabbits and ants!!
After doing all that, God decided to add one last finishing touch - to complete it and make it better.
He decided to make Man.
And so a Man He made - He made Man in His own image and likeness!!
God saw all He made and said "It is Good" .
DAY 7:
On the seventh day, God rested.
