God has planted evidence of His existence on the pages of history, in
the handiwork of nature and the beauty of the skies above us. We read
of His faithfulness to care for His people from the beginning of
recorded history to this very moment. We find nourishment for our bodies
tucked away in plants, animals and minerals. Sailors find directions in
the stars He hung in the heavens as they sail from one country to
another. Wherever we look, we can find God’s fingerprint on the planet
or a signpost that directs to His dwelling above us.
Yet, it takes a willingness to see Him, an open mind to search for
Him, a sensitive heart to accept Him and a selfless life to follow Him.
Even those who do not want to believe in Him, use the minds He gave
them to try to deny His existence. The arguments they offer and the
logic they use, in the final analysis, came from His grace. When we look
at all the gods that have been created by man, not one of them has
stood the test of time. They last only as long as their creator and then
pass into the darkness of emptiness.
But the Creator, the God who is God, spoke through a Psalmist and
said, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work
of His hands. Day after day…and night after night…there is no language
where their voice is not heard.”
Man may speak and argue, lecture and labor, write and work to erase
the existence of God, but there is no way they can reach into the
heavens and hide the stars.
Prayer: Thank You, God, our Creator, for making Your existence visible to those who desire to know and love You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Scripture for Today: Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.
