I am utterly amazed by nature. Staring out at the massive mountains, enormous crevasses like the Grand Canyon, the beauty of the full moon… I am in awe by the world around me. The magnificence of nature screams that there must have been a Creator. There had to be intelligent design! I am amazed by the glory of the human body—the science behind our skin and our muscles… The wonder of the reproductive system and how everything fits together with such perfection to create a human life… I love how miniscule atoms are and all the microscopic marvels in the world. I love how massive the sun is and how we, in comparison, aren’t even a speck or a grain of sand. The expanse of the universe… The glory of the stars and the sky… I’m just amazed and awed by everything I’m surrounded by.

To realize that there is a God who cares about such tiny details that He joyfully created atoms—knowing full well that we wouldn’t even be able to understand them fully! He joyfully made Venus rotate backwards when none of the other planets do! He put between 40,000 and 150,000 muscles in an elephant’s trunk (the entire human body only has about 640 muscles)! Nature begs for a creator!

This picture came to me while Ryan Kondo was leading worship one night a few weeks ago… He sang two songs by Phil Wickham, “Beautiful” and “Cannons,” and the lyrics of both resonated with me so clearly!

“I see Your power in the moonlit night
Where planets are in motion and galaxies are bright
We are amazed in the light of the stars
It’s all proclaiming who You are
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful.”

And then “Cannons” declares even more…

“It’s falling from the clouds, a strange and lovely sound
I hear it in the thunder and rain
It’s ringing in the sky like cannons in the night
The music of the universe plays
You are holy, great and mighty
The moon and stars declare who You are
I’m so unworthy, but still You love me
Forever my heart will sing of how great You are
Beautiful and free, the song of galaxies
Reaching far beyond the Milky Way
Let’s join in with the sound, come on let’s sing it out
As the music of the universe plays.”

I don’t believe so much beauty came about by chance or simply transformed over time. I believe there is a God who loves us and, out of love, blessed us with a beautiful world that draws us to worship Him!

Psalm 19:1, “The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.”

Psalm 97:6, “The heavens proclaim his righteousness; every nation sees his glory.”

Louie Giglio has some neat videos about this all—they are called “Indescribable” and “How Great is Our God.” Just look them up on YouTube to find them! Blessings, everyone!
