Genesis 1:1-19. Psalm 104. Mark 6:53-56. Often when we look at the story of creation we focus on what we have figured out about the world's beginnings. This may miss the point. Genesis, though certainly accurate, paints a picture of who God is and who His people are to Him. The creation story and the gospel both point to the fact that God is able to create order out of chaos. He is able to take something formless and void and create a wonderful and functional system. He is also able to take our dysfunctional and chaotic lives and bring order to them. God creates order for a purpose. That purpose is primarily that things would fulfill their God-given function. This can only start if God has first brought peace out of chaos. Is your life chaotic? Do you struggle to find your place? Come to Jesus. He creates order of of chaos.
