That’s a great question, and you are quite correct, creation cosmologists most certainly do have an answer. Here’s a good, easy to understand place to start:

Thanks... I'll read that. I found some similar explanations just searching google.

Really though, I guess I could have just re-checked genesis to see: "First God made heaven & earth The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters. And God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light."

I suppose scientific explanation isn't really needed. HE said "let there be light" and there was light... Question answered. :-)
