MEDITATION

Genesis 1:9-13

9 Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God 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.
12 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 God saw that it was good.
13 So the evening and the morning were the third day.

Psalm 104:5-9

5 You who laid the foundations of the earth, So that it should not be moved forever,
6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment; The waters stood above the mountains.
7 At Your rebuke they fled; At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
8 They went up over the mountains; They went down into the valleys, To the place which You founded for them.
9 You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, That they may not return to cover the earth.

经文:创世记 1:9-13;诗篇 104:5-9

沉思

《创世记 1:9-13》
9 神说:“天下的水要聚在一处,使旱地露出来。”事就这样成了。
10 神称旱地为地,称水的聚处为海。神看着是好的。
11 神说:“地要发生青草和结种子的菜蔬,并结果子的树木,各从其类,果子都包着核。”事就这样成了。
12 于是地发生了青草和结种子的菜蔬,各从其类;并结果子的树木,各从其类,果子都包着核。神看着是好的。

13 有晚上,有早晨,是第三日。

《诗篇 104:5-9》
5 将地立在根基上,使地永不动摇。
6 你用深水遮盖地面,犹如衣裳,诸水高过山岭。
7 你的斥责一发,水便奔逃;你的雷声一发,水便奔流。
8 诸山升上,诸谷沉下,归你为它所安定之地。

9 你定了界限,使水不能过去,不再转回遮盖地面。
