In Genesis 1:3-31 talks about the creation story. One point that just struck me is that it was not haphazard. It was structured and it was sequential. Sky and Ground was separated and then living things were created in them.
Ecclesiastics talks about precepts upon precept, line upon line this is because there is an expectation that things have to be put in the right order. The bible talks of seeking the kingdom of God first and then will all other things be added unto you. If you cannot do the primary how do you expect the increase to come. You cannot expect a harvest of the things that you don't plant.
Many times people try to do things without the proper structure.
Imagine the creation of fishes without the separation of waters or the creation of birds without the firmaments. God always knows the end from the beginning and He always knows how to orchestrate the events that will ensure that things flow differently.
At various points in our lives, we are at different points in our creation story. Being the humans that we are, we have free will and sometimes we feel that because we can plan, we have it all figured out. But like in the creation story, we just know up to the point that has been archived and when we get there we get anxious about the next ten paces.
John 1 records that God was in the beginning and we know He is also present continuous and various parts of the bible go to show that there is always a big picture.
No matter the part of your creation story that you find yourself it should be comforting to know that he had finished from all His works and rested so He has you all figured out. Gradually, precepts upon precepts, line upon line, He is putting together a beautiful complete story.
