When God decided to create his kingdom on earth, the world was a waste land a dark empty abyss. No life and not suited for living. But why did he created us anyway? He don’t need human beings to exist. He won’t benefit anything from us. But then, he created the earth for seven days. The creation was a step-by-step process; from the light, to the stars, the land, the sea, vegetation and animals. At the top of it all, he created men. He then gave him dominion over the land, the sea, vegetation and animals.
I will go back to my question. Why did He created us anyway?
We were created out of LOVE. He created us in His image and likeness, called us son and daughters so that we may experience the things that we are enjoying right now. We existed because of Him so that we may glorify and love Him at all times. “He created us in His own image and likeness” Gn 1:27, this is the major evidence that we were created because of love. He gave us dominion over His creation. He gave us the right to use the resources He has given for us to exist.
He created us out of love, and our mission is also to love and worship Him in return. We were given dominion over His creation but we should also respect those living/non-living things because we were equally created by Him. We should give importance to each creation He has made especially our fellow human being for we are called to love Him and love one another as well as members of His wonderfull creation.
