Charles Spurgeon Commentary Genesis 1:24-25

"And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after their kind: and it was so. And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the ground after its kind: and God saw that it was good." — Genesis 1:24-25 (ASV)

There is as much wisdom and care displayed in the creation of the tiniest creeping insect as in the creation of leviathan himself.

Those who use the microscope are as much amazed at the greatness and the goodness of God as those who use the telescope. He is as great in the little as He is in the great.

After each day's work, God looks upon it, and it is well for us every night to review our day's work. Some men's work will not bear looking at, and tomorrow becomes all the worse for them because today was not considered and its sin was not repented of by them.

But if the errors of today are marked by us, their repetition may be avoided tomorrow. It is only God who can look upon any one day's work, and say of it, as a whole and in every part, that it is good. As for us, our best things need sprinkling with the blood of Christ, which we need not only on the lintels and side posts of our house but even on the altar and the mercy seat at which we worship God.
