This blog is going to be used to mainly keep up on my writing...whether it is the love story I haven't written but am living every day or a future one on our two adopted boys...

Hmmm...I wonder...

Ever notice anything you haven't thought about before when reading
the Bible? Take these short verses we've all heard a million times...


Genesis 2:19-20

"Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts
of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man
to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called
each living creature, that was its name. So the man gave names to
all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field."


Now consider this.....

Do you realize how many species of "birds of the air" there are?
How many beasts of the field?
Livestock may not be so bad, yet does that include chickens?
(You know they don't fly-not a bird of the air...neither are ostriches
or roadrunners...did God name these?)
Does this mean God named all the bugs, lizards, fish, and so on?
Or did that come later?

AND....how long did it take for Adam to name all these?

Was it days, months or years??

I don't know about you, but I think this makes my head hurt!

(You can stop thinking about it now.)
