Genesis 2:31

Stephanie Holden

and god saw every thing

that he had made,     and

behold, it was very good

  • genesis 2:31

you are your own god   re

born  under      a         new

name  on   the   sixth  day

you took a rib  from   your

skeleton built  a   man   of

your     own         creation;

molded     him      in     the

likeness of someone  you

have yet to meet      a  life

is  a   laborious  thing    to

create,    and  scars    will

come    and      then    will

fade  but   tomorrow      is

the  seventh day           on

the   seventh     day    you

will finally

rest
