In the beginning God created … Genesis1:1
WE WORK IN MYSTERIOUS DAYS

Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep;
the WORK of CREATION
When
We made the light
We made it comprehensively and We saw it qualitatively
both the function and effect of light
the ancient Hebrew captures the phenomena of the reality
of what We see and how We see it
you need to also appreciate this in the understanding of Us
as the Triune Consciousness
~~~
Regardless of how strong our idea is, how confident we are of it, how certainly we can envision its ultimate outcome, each step of the process of its creation and implementation is only an affirmation of what was originally an idea
our awareness of
the Creator Who sees the outcome of the plan at its beginning
the Designer Who becomes an integral part of the reality as it is
the Indwelling One who brings the Designer and Creator to us
is essential to our understanding of what is and how it works
~~~
We see light not only as it is in and of itself in all its aspects
but as it is experienced by Us
and also how Our Spirit is aware of light within you
through your senses and perception
the whole experience is one of affirmation that the light is good
and ultimately the acknowledgement
that We the Creator ~ Designer ~ Builder are good.
~~~
the rest of creation~adheres to the same design and function~from thought to the reality we presently see and know
~ the sky, the sea, the land ~ fauna and creatures ~ and yes, even ourselves
each other, and Elohim~known as good - very good
וַיִּקְרָא אֱלֹהִים לָאוֹר יוֹם וְלַחֹשֶׁ קָרָא לָיְלָה וַיְהִי־עֶרֶב וַיְהִי־בֹקֶר יוֹם אֶחָד פ ~
Elohim called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. The evening and the morning were the first day.
the Days of Creation ~ the realities we see

Then Elohim said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters." Elohim made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so. And Elohim called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.
Then Elohim said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so. And Elohim called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And Elkohim saw that it was good. Then Elohim said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And Elohim saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the third day.
Then Elohim said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years; and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so. Then Elohim made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. Elohim set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And Elohim saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Then Elohim said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens." So Elohim created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And Elohim saw that it was good. And Elohim blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth." So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
Then Elohim said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. And Elohim made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Let us go to the 1st principle stated in the creation of light above, and the dynamic it represents, while adding a 2nd Principle – Wisdom does not have to keep reinventing itself.
All creation serves a principle of awareness and scale, one which is designed to both allow us to be comfortable and functional, even pleasured – while at the same time drawing us to the life of Elohim and Their awareness and pleasure of what They have created. Their willingness to condescend to us as creatures appears to be unfathomable.
In the most basic terms, heaven is that which is above. We now know that the borders of the expanse above us appears to be unlimited, yet each and every day we are canopied with an ever-changing vista of beauty that intrigues us without overwhelming us. The 1st Principle regarding the expanse or heaven is that Elohim made it so, and Their awareness of our experience, particularly when we have invited Their Presence to commune with us as we look up at the sky enhances the dynamic of its Design and Their Purpose.
When the waters were gathered and dry land created, Elohim worked with the pre-created elemental substances to further divide and specialize their functionality and purpose. The waters are serving their purpose, the dry lands theirs, but they are held together within the forces and materials of the dark-energy and dark-matter that we have yet to discover; (a reverse conceptualization of this would be the inversion of all nature returning to its most elemental state by feeding back into a black hole). Now a dynamic and relationship of these two most basic elements of our created existence has been established.
The Wisdom continues. Now the dynamic of earth and water are being formed into self-reproducing life; on the platform of earth and water, organic substances are introduced and enabled; now the design is much more in the realm of Human consciousness and experience. These are living things that enable us to breathe and live; the term we today apply to it is ecosystem.
The creation has taken on a new level of functionality, one that engages the mind. Time and spatial relationship is established, an engagement that is playing out even to this very day, a Dance in the Heavens. The light that was visible from the beginning to Elohim now has become visible to the coming “Our Image”; the condescension is humbling, the effect now almost overwhelming.
If we choose to think in practical, scientific terms, the sustenance base for larger even more sophisticated expressions of life has been established, and now it’s beneficiaries are enabled. A more complicated ecosystem emerges, where the nutrients of the plants feed the creatures and the creatures resupply the plants their recycled nutrients.
Note again that all this is now being derived from the earth, which is derived from the waters, a direct line of causality and functionality that is entangled in webs of co-dependency. All of these are experienced in and of themselves by Elohim, and now to be experienced by Them within and through us; and us of Them, and just how good They and what They have made are.
Now the god-particle. That which was from the beginning which we have only recently discovered at the end, the substance that interacts with all matter and energy around us, takes on its ultimate expression. Let Us make Humankind in Our Image, male and female. The ultimate condescension; that which is dust receives the divine breath of spiritual consciousness and is engaged in the process that will bring the Son Nature of the Trinity to Human form and fellowship. We are evoked to wonder, engaged to consider, enabled to respond.
Then Elohim said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." So Elohim created man in His own image; in the image of Elohim He created him; male and female He created them.
