Hebrew Highlight: Or (אוֹר) — 'Light'
Light—or—is the very first creation through speech. The Hebrew teaches that light is more than physical brightness; it is clarity, openness, and hope. God’s creative act begins not by removing darkness, but by introducing something entirely new.
Personal Insight: Notice how wisdom and hope sometimes enter your life not by fixing problems, but by providing a new perspective—a spark of light in confusion.
Practical Connection: Where can you bring a little extra 'light'—curiosity or encouragement—today, either to yourself or those around you?

Reflection: For just a moment, pause and notice something you’ve taken for granted. What would change if you saw it in a new 'light'?
