Surely God could have used any time he wanted?

Did you notice the question was not “what are the days?”, but why only 6 of them and not 600 or 6,000,000? It’s not a question we have ever had before so thank you to the ‘Asker’ for a real first.
Loving God, loving myself and loving others.
Luke 10: 25-37
In this paper we are going to look at how people accept, or do not accept themselves, and the images we can all project. Before doing so, we look at the context to our reading, and make a comment on God’s command to love Him. As we go through the paper we will also see what love really is.
The Context.
Before our reading about the lawyer (Luke 10:1-18).
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.” Heb 11:1-3
In Hebrews 11 we read of ordinary people who did extraordinary things – all out of proportion to their powers. I’m sure that, at times, this must have been a surprise to themselves as well as to others, yet it is because of the Holy Spirit within them that they were able to do these things in obedience to God.
A very brief overview of the Bible.
The Bible consists of sixty-six books that were written over a 1,600-year period. These books – Genesis to Revelation – speak of man’s beginnings, God’s gracious dealings with man, and the final culmination of all things through the return of Jesus Christ. God’s word gives us a blueprint to live by, and answers such questions as, “who am I, why am I here, and what is my purpose in life”?
Genesis, the first book of the Bible, tells us that God created a world of order and not disorder. We are amazingly, and wonderfully made, and did not come about by accident.
Imagine that you arrive at the scene of an accident, and find a smashed car at the bottom of the cliff on which you are standing. The car is green, and with very large wheels and tyres – the sort you’d only find on customised cars. At the cliff edge you see the green paint on many of the rocks, and the large distinctive tyre tracks leading over the edge of the cliff. The soil was disturbed, and rocks had fallen away. Directly below were the remains of the vehicle. Logically speaking the car had slipped over the cliff. Although you were not present, and do not necessarily understand how it had happened, all the evidence (secondary factors) points to one logical conclusion: the car went over the cliff.
