Fulfilling Our Purpose
Matthew Henry observes that the sun, moon, and stars faithfully fulfill their created purpose to serve God. He then poses a challenge: "We are set as lights in this world to serve God; but do we...fulfill the purpose of our creation?" The fourth day serves as a powerful reminder for believers to faithfully shine for God's glory in their own lives.
