I was reading in the Psalms today, and was happily surprised by what I found in chapter 33:
6 The Lord merely spoke,
and the heavens were created.
He breathed the word,
and all the stars were born.
7 He assigned the sea its boundaries
and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
8 Let the whole world fear the Lord,
and let everyone stand in awe of him.
9 For when he spoke, the world began!
It appeared at his command.
I enjoy how the first two chapters of Genesis are a unique parallel, emphasizing different aspects of God's character in each account, but I love David's presentation of creation - he put some thought into it! It shows how utterly awesome God is, and how amazing creation actually was. Very descriptive.
