During the week of creation, God planted a garden and put the man Adam whom he had made.
A river that had four openings, flowed out of Eden to water the garden.
In addition to the trees that God made to provide food, two special trees were put in the garden.
One was the Tree of Life and the other was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
God gave man another job, to take care of the garden.
God told Adam that he may eat from any of the trees that were for food, but not to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
God warned him that in the day he ate from that special tree, he would surely die.
Remember what Adam’s other job was, to name the animals, fish and birds?
Well, while he was naming them, he realized that they all had a partner, but he didn’t have one.
God already knew that it was not good for man to be alone, but now Adam knew it too.
God put Adam to sleep and performed the first surgery by taking a rib from Adam’s side and using it to make a partner for him.
Adam called her woman and she became known as Eve, the mother of all living.
During that time, the man and his wife didn’t wear any clothes, but they were not embarrassed and did not seem to notice.
Since there was no sin on the earth, this family could have lived happily every after.

CREATION: THE FIRST WEEK OF EARTH
L.A.N.D. Children Living Bible Series
Once upon a time, when nothing was in the world, God made Heaven and Earth.
The Earth was dark and empty, except for the Holy Spirit who was hovering over the Earth.
So on day 1, God made light and separated it from the darkness and called them day and night.
On day 2, God made the atmosphere, separated it with space and called the top part heaven.
On day 3, God made land on the bottom part and called it Earth and made seas, then added herb plants, grass and fruit trees.
One day 4, God made the sun for daytime and the moon for nighttime, so that we could keep track of time.
On day 5, God made fish and other sea creatures and birds and they had babies and multiplied.
On day 6, God made land animals and two people, a man named Adam and after that, a woman named Eve, his wife.
God put the man and woman in charge of the animals, fish and birds and even let the man name them.
God told Adam and Eve to have lots of children so that the Earth will be filled with people.
God also told them that they could eat the fruits and that both they and the animals could eat the herbs.
Everything God made was good.
On day 7, God was finished creating the Earth so he ended his work and rested.
God blessed the 7th day and made it special and told Adam and Eve to enjoy that special time with him and rest also.

FOUND RULES: THE FIRST STEPS TOWARD CHANGE
Josiah was eight years old when he became king of Judah
He reigned for 31 years and did what was right in the sight of the Lord
In his 18th year as king, Josiah sent Shaphan, the scribe, to the temple of the Lord
He told Shaphan to go to Hilkiah, the High Priest, and ask him to count the money that is collected by the door keepers
He was to deliver the money to the workers who were to repair the temple
While Hilkiah was in the temple, he found the Book of the Law and gave it to Shaphan to read
Shaphan went back and reported to Joshiah, now 26 years old, that the money was found in the temple and given to the workers
He also showed Joshiah the Book of the Law that Hilkiah, the High Priest, gave to him and read to the king
The king was distressed and humbled himself and gave orders to inquire of the Lord on behalf of the people
He realized that Lord was angry because the people had not been following the Book of the Law
So the High Priest, the Scribe and three others went to Huldah, the Prophetess, and asked her for a message from the Lord
Huldah told them to tell the king that the Lord was angry with the people because they were worshipping other gods
Since King Joshiah humbled himself before the Lord, the Lord heard him and would have mercy on him
The Lord told Huldah that King Joshiah would die in peace and not see the destruction that would come upon his people
