1 In the beginning
God created the Linda and the Steve.
2 And the heart of
Steve was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of his heart. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of
Steve’s loneliness.
3 And God said,
Let there be light: and there was Linda.
4 And God saw the
light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called
the light Love, and the darkness he called all else but Linda. And the evening
and the morning were the first day.
6 And God said,
Let there be a wedding in the midst of the years, and let it divide the past
from the future.
7 And God made the
marriage, and divided the years which were before the wedding from the years
which were after the wedding: and it was so.
8 And God called
the marriage Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said let
the years under the Heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry
land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called
the dry land Home; and the gathering together of the years He called Happiness,
and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said let
the Happiness bring forth Children, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree
yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it
was so.
12 And the
Happiness brought forth Liza, and joy, yielding seed after his kind, and the
Happiness yet again brought forth Stephanie, yielding much love, whose seed was
in itself, after its kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening
and the morning were the third day.
14 And God said, let
there be lights in the firmament of the Family to divide the day from the
night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be
for lights in the firmament of the Family to give light upon the earth: and it
was so.
16 And God made
two great lights; One He named Till – Billy and Faye, and one He named Ortego –
Lloyd and Myra.
17 And God set
them in the firmament of the Family to give light upon them.
18 And to teach
wisdom and give blessing over them day and night, and to divide the light from
the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening
and the morning were the fourth day.
20 And God said
let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving inner beauty that hath life,
and joy that may fly above the children, Liza and Stephanie, in the open
firmament of Heaven.
21 And God created
great strength of character in Liza and Stephanie, and every living creature
that moveth were blessed by them. Linda
and Steve rejoiced abundantly, after their kind, and every blessing of God
followed them after His kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed
them, saying, be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and
let praise multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening
and the morning were the fifth day.
24 And God said, let
the earth bring forth the living creature after His kind, young men, and
creeping thing, and beast of the earth after His kind: and it was so.
25 And from the
young men God chose the Johnathan that He had made after his kind – Bush: John
and Karen, and God chose the Jason after his kind – Roussell: Joe and
Jeannette, giving unto them every blessing of honor, and strength, and fear of
the Lord, finding favor with God, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 And God said,
Let us make new Families in our image, after our likeness: and let them have
dominion over their own children, and over their own joy and blessings of life,
and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth.
27 So God created
Families Bush and Roussell in his own image, in the image of God created he them;
Bush and Roussell created he them.
28 And God blessed
them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the
earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the blessings of children, and
joys of life, and over every living thing that moveth upon the Family.
29 And God said to
the Families Bush and Roussell, behold, I have given you every joy of life,
which is upon the face of all the earth, and every blessing, which is the fruit
of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for Grandchildren!
30 And to every child
of Bush, and to every child of Roussell, and to everything that creepeth upon the
earth, wherein there is life, I have given every blessing of joy and life to
Audrey, and Jack, and Riley, and Teddy so that they may bring forth abundantly
the inner beauty that hath life, and strength of character and praise to God,
and joy that may fly above the children in the open firmament of the marriages
which God has called Heaven: and it was so.
31 And God saw
everything that he had made, and, to Linda and Steve He said, “Behold, is it not
very good?” And they replied on bended
knee and heart and with voices raised in Thanksgiving and Praise that it was
indeed so. And the evening and the
morning were the sixth day.
32 And on the
seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh
day from all his work which he had made.
33 And God blessed
the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all
his work which God created and made. And
on the seventh day and all the days of his life, Steve and Linda will praise
and thank the Lord God for the fullness of all His blessings. Amen.
