I had a fifth grade science teacher who took us out on a field trip one day during the spring thaw. We walked within about a half mile radius of the school.

He pointed out all of this in miniature. There were receding snowbanks depositing sediment, new water channels being formed where there was no grass or other root vegetation to hold it back, snow in the shade which melted far more slowly and unevenly producing entirely different run-off patterns and even miniature canyons being formed where there were conditions of rapid melt and run-off into narrow channels.

Just about all of us came back to the classroom with a better understanding of how our land features formed than we would have learned in a semester of lectures and book reading.

The Creator is the God of the Living. It’s cool that he used lifeforms in his sculpting of our world.
