Creator God

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”

Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV)

He who comes to God must believe that He is; that He exists.

One of the strongest evidences for God’s existence is the physical world in which we live.  

Nature reveals God.

In the book Charlotte’s Web by E.B. White, Mrs. Arable, worried about her daughter Fern, goes to the Doctor to discuss the bizarre events happening on their farm:

“Do you understand how there could be any writing in a spider's web?"

"Oh, no," said Dr. Dorian. "I don't understand it. But for that matter I don't understand how a spider learned to spin a web in the first place. When the words appeared, everyone said they were a miracle. But nobody pointed out that the web itself is a miracle."

Everyday, everywhere, we are surrounded by miracles.  

From sunrise to sunset God’s presence and power is revealed.

We see His fingerprints upon the flowers and His heartbeat in the heavens.

Nature reveals the existence of God.

“The Heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. Psalm 19:1-2 (NKJV)”

Today, may our view be lifted from the mundane to the miraculous.

Prayer:

Oh God My Creator,

May I be still today and know that You are God.

May my faith be strengthened as I look at Your creation.
