∙ 12y agoThere's certainly nothing wrong with forming mental pictures in you mind of the days of creation. The Bible account is very brief. But we can certainly use our imagination.
For example: You could imagine you are an angel, watching the creation happening on little earth. God announces he will create a new form-of-life on earth. So far, the only form-of-life is 'spirit life' (namely the angels). The angels are probably wondering how God will create 'physical' life; life made from the physical elements. "Impossible! Can't be done" they may have thought. But lo-&-behold, God created 'Plant' Life. This form-of-life was stationary. It could not move around as fast as angels. It could not move at all. Plant-life had 'no intelligence'; no 'free will'.
Unlike the angels, plant-life was not created to live forever. Now the angels would first learn about what 'death' is like. A pretty flower one day, the next day wilted and lay dead.
But unlike the angels, Plant-life could 'reproduce'. And thus the earth would in this way have a never ending supply of vegetation.
No doubt the angels wondered "what is the purpose of this form-of-life?" It cannot love God. It cannot communicate anything. But they would have to wait for the answer. Only when 'animal-life' and 'mankind-life' was created would the angels learn that 'the purpose of plant-life' is to provide oxygen for later forms of life; and also to provide 'sustenance / food' for later forms of life.
Isn't this a way to form a wonderful LIVING picture in your imagination about the days of creation?
