God did it in one try

Genesis 1:1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

I was teaching Sunday School for one of our teachers when she was gone. The lesson was on God's creation. The opening exercise was for the children to draw a picture of an animal. The paper was divided into 3 parts. The first part is for the head, the second for the body, and the third for the tail or feet. There were three children, one drew a monkey, one a tiger, and one another animal. I had the children trade one part and see what their animal looked like. Then they traded another part, when all was done they traded 4 times to get there original animal back. What a wonderful visual! It took us four times to get the animal right and it only took God one. What a wonderful, almighty God!
