Evidence for God
For since the creation of the world [God’s] invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that [man is] without excuse.
Romans 1:20
If you drive a car into a forest and leave it for one hundred years, when you return, you will find it has deteriorated. That is an elementary example of the Second Law of Thermodynamics which says that without inputs of energy in a closed system, entropy (disorder) increases over time. When left alone (no input of care or energy), things get worse, not better, over time.
That is one of many examples from nature and physics that suggest the existence of a Creator-God who brought the earth into existence and supports its continued existence over time. The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 1:19-20 that God and His attributes are “clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made.” And the psalmist David wrote eloquently about the heavens declaring “the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1-6). So if God is clearly evident, why do all not acknowledge and believe in Him? Because of pride—an unwillingness to submit to the “clearly seen” God of creation (Romans 1:21-32).
As you enjoy nature, give thanks to God for His creation and for revealing Himself to all with eyes to see.
God has left His fingerprints all over creation.
