🔒 Closed Genesis 1:31

[Swimmah]

Genesis 1:31 (KJV) And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

At the end of the sixth day of creation, God declared His work good. All of it. Sin introduced evil and brokenness into God’s good creation, but God’s intention remains the same. We have hope that God will finish the work of restoration that He began in Jesus and that when we are with Him in eternity, the goodness of God’s design will be fully restored.

Thank You, God, for being such a loving and thoughtful Creator. Even through the brokenness of our fallen world, I still see Your beauty, Your brilliance, and Your care reflected throughout Your work. Thank You, Lord, for the hope of eternity, where Your goodness will be fully revealed, unblemished by the stain of sin. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The adjective “good” should not therefore be limited in meaning to the sense of “suitable,” or “fitting.” There is nothing “evil” in the Divinely-created universe: it is “very good”
