Nature

In class on Tuesday, we discussed nature and I distinctly remember this discussion last semester in Comp 2. I think that it is a very interesting idea to say that when you see nature, you can actually see God, and to an extent you really can. When I see a beautiful landscape I think, "who can create such a beautiful thing?" The only answer i can come up with is God. A human cannot make the earth look so naturally beautiful. Yes,. a person can plant something in the ground, but it's not the same as the Grand Canyon. I mean who in the world can make such a beautiful place? Only God can! And to think about how He made all of this is just such an amazing thing because nature is so complex and to know that He made all of this in a week is just so hard to grasp. God has to truly be Almighty and Powerful if He can do all this in a week. I can't even make the most glamorous wedding in a week (and that's such a small thing!)
 This is the picture of the Grand Canyon, which is one of  God's master pieces! It's really unfathomable to know that God created all the trees, the grass, the mountains, seas, rivers, lakes, streams, etc. in just one day! God is just so Amazing! I wish there were another way to describe just how beautiful of a creation He has made!

  2. I agree, the your opening thought. The idea that nature is God's fingerprint in a sense. That when you look at nature you see in "invisible attributes" How great is our God? =) Wonderful thoughts. Thank you.

  3. Adam, i am really happy to see you asking those questions and even pondering nature. nature is a place where, personally, I am with God, i feel God, i know who He is more because of nature. It is like the sky. Who can paint those kinds of colors in the array it comes in? Our CREATOR of heaven and earth, that is who. Those pictures you posted are beautiful and i love seeing them and knowing that our God created those places and views for His children. We are here to be in awe of who He is as I Am!!!
