Then the strangest thing happened - the singing
was all around them and in them.
Out came mountains and valleys and rivers with fish!
It just happened so spontaneously -
this was God singing creation into being
and they were there singing with Him,
creating too!
It felt like the most natural place to be;
it felt like this is where we all came from!
The singing continued
and in it
one could hear the
voice of God speaking:
"Light be!"
and Light was.
"Land and sea and oceans be!"
and they were -
all unfolding in the most spectacular way you could
have ever dreamed. It is beyond words; it is
God's magic!
The wonder was their voices never tired; they sang
and sang and sang.
We don't know how long this
was going on.
It felt like millions of years flashing
past them in a few hours.
Then there was silence.
It was not a scary one;
no, not one of those,
but a silence of holding one's
breath for something magnificent is about to
happen.............
