Time, Space and the Big Bang

On the far side of forever where neither time nor space existed, the Creator observed the indeterminable amount nothingness before Him. He spoke, and the vast nothingness before Him became filled with ions created by the power of His voice. These ions, vibrating from the resonance that echoes throughout His being, began colliding with each other creating atoms. First came lighter atoms such as hydrogen and helium. Then as the vibrations continued, heavier atoms began to form. Then with attraction atoms of similar nuclear and atomic order and gravity, a great cloud of energy began to form. It grew and continued to grow to immense proportions. Time was still not yet. At some point in this creation process, this great cloud of energy blew apart in an explosion that sent matter away from it’s center at speeds greater than the speed of light. As things began slowing stars, galaxies and things yet undiscovered were finding their place in the great universe. Now, with everything in its place and in motion, time began.

The Creator, for reasons known only to Him, began adding the planets. He added one particular one called earth. It was a very wet place where He separated the waters from the firmament, creating seas and dry land. He set the moon in just the right place to control the tides and give us the four seasons. After He filled the seas with fish, the air with birds, and the land with animals and plants, He saw that it was good. Then, for reasons known only to Him, He created man. In His own image created him, male and female created He them, and said it was very good.

It’s been thousands of years since the Creator has had such a close, personal relationship with his creation. After all, He did give man dominion over everything. In other words He left us in charge. Maybe we should take our job more serious.
