On the third day he made the land, sea, and rivers, and the grass, flowers, and trees.
On the fourth day he made the sun, moon, and stars, to give light to the earth by day and night.
On the fifth day he made the fish that swim in the water and the birds that fly in the air.
On the sixth day he made all the animals, and at last he made man. He gave them for food the grain of the fields, the fruits of the trees, and the vegetables of the garden.
On the seventh day God rested “from all the work which he had made.” “And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.”
In the Garden of Eden
WHEN the Garden of Eden was planted with all the beautiful flowers and trees, God gave it to Adam for a home. He told him to take good care of it. Adam was glad to work in the garden and use it as he chose; but he had no one to enjoy the things that he enjoyed, no one to help him to be just what God wished him to be, no one to love.
