"What may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities--His eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse." (Romans 1:19-20) All creation was designed to make us aware of/conscious of God, the Creator/the Intelligent Designer. It's plain to see; yet some people remain (spiritually) blind! Those who look at nature and say "there is no God" are fools. They have no excuse whatsoever. And those who worship creation, rather than Creator, are fools (idolaters) as well. God speaks through His creation but some people still would not listen. Look up and look around you. How vast and remarkable the stars in the sky are and how tiny but significant DNA in the cell is! The beauty, complexity, magnificence, and magnitude of creation undeniably point to loving, caring, merciful, & all-powerful Creator. This wonderful world was made for us so that we might know and trust God. The glorious beauty of creation should lead all of us to praise and worship the Creator with humility and reverence.
"Scientists know our planet is precisely the right distance from the sun to benefit from its heat. A little closer and all the water would evaporate, as on Venus. Only a bit farther and everything would freeze like it does on Mars. Earth is also just the right size to generate the right amount of gravity. Less would make everything weightlessly sterile like our moon, while more gravity would trap poisonous gases that suffocate life as on Jupiter. The intricate physical, chemical, and biological interactions that comprise our world bear the imprint of a sophisticated Designer." (Remi Oyedele)
Prayer:
Praise Elohim! Thank You for all the beauties and wonders of this world we live in! Thank You for all Your creation, including me! Thank You for revealing Yourself to us through Your creation, Your Word, and Jesus Christ! I am in awe of You, Your awesomeness, Your amazing grace and relentless love for me. Please use my words, my action, my life to declare how great You are and to reflect Your light and love that will draw others to come know You and trust You. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
