Today's reading dives into the first chapters of Genesis, which many of us know from childhood. Even though it may seem like a simple story, it's so much more—it's about God's amazing power to bring order out of chaos. As he hovers over the chaotic waters, he brings forth order and structure: light from darkness, sea from land, and so on.
This idea of order is incredibly relevant for us today. Our lives can get pretty chaotic, but when we put God first, everything else falls into place. So if there is one thing we can take from the reading today, it's that we should strive for a well-ordered life where living for God is our first priority.
Additional passages: Psalm 37:23-24, and Matthew 22:37.
