God made the sun to give us light by day, and the moon and stars so we can have some light at night.
God made the earth for us to live on.
But the sun, moon, stars and the earth were not the first things God made. Do you know what was the first? God first made perons like himself. We can´t see these persons, just as we can´t see God. In the Bible these persons are called angels. god made the angels to live wiht himself in heaven.
The first angel God made was very special. He helped God to make all other things. He helped God to make the sun, moon, stars and also our earth.
What was the earth like then? In the beginning no one could live on earth. There was nothing but one big ocean of water all over the land. But God wanted people to live on earth. So he began to get things ready for us. What did he do?
Well, first the earth needed light. So God made the light from the sun to shine on the earth. He made it so there could be both nighttime and daytime. Afterward God caused land to come up above the water of the ocean.
At first there was nothing on the land. It looked like the picture you see here. There were no flowers, trees or animals. There were not even any fish in the oceans. God has a lot more work to do to make the earth really nice for animals and people to live on.
God made green grass to cover the land. And he made all kinds of small plants, bushes, trees.
You see that God made everything from fishes to birds..... until God see something what he missing... human...
God took some dust from the ground and with it he formed a perfect body is Adam. It´s Adam who name every animals like "lion, fish, etc..."
God made Adam fall into sleep & took a rib bone from his side and made it into woman = Eve.
Around more than 1,700 years later after Adam´s creation, Noah Ark and the great Flood comes and also more thousand years later Jesus Christ born.
