It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.

John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

John 3:16-17

Amen.
