Genesis 1-3
Lord God, Creator of heaven and earth, why did you do it? You knew we would fail you, but you brought us into being anyway. And, when all we deserve is death, you provided a way to life! Why? It seems so incredibly pointless until I use the creative abilities you have endowed upon me; then, in creating, I begin to get a small glimmer of insight into the motive behind your creating. The joy you must feel is comprehensible in small measure as I look upon my feeble attempts at creation. Thank you for sharing this joy!
