"In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth."
The earth did not look as it does now. Every thing was very beautiful.
Green grass covered all the valleys, hills, and mountains.
There were lovely lakes and rivers.
The air and water were clear and pure.
There were no swamps nor deserts, and there were no weeds. The most beautiful flowers were seen in every place.
We cannot think how lovely every thing was at that time. The earth was full of the love of God.
"And God saw every thing that He had made, and it was very good."
