Let’s continue our time in the creation story with Gen 1:16 which reads, “And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars.”

In this portion of the creation story not only does God create the sun and moon but if we back up a couple of verses, we see He uses these to create time. Verse 14 reads “And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years”.

As the creator of time, He is not bound by the constraints of time as we understand it.

He knows where seed planting is needed. He knows when we need to be in a tending season and when the time has come to harvest. If we are trying to harvest when we should be in another season we will not yield the harvest God intended and we will work in vein, exhausting ourselves under our own power. The more time we spend out of God’s timing the more time we will spend not fully knowing the abundant life He promises.
