I suspect I'm not nearly as bright as many who are discussing this subject, but when I gaze into God's creation, I am dwarfed by the realization of the magnitude of what I see. The created world is so sublime, so brilliantly fashioned, a work of unknowable genius, that I must fall on my knees and say, "Glory be to you, oh God." Like Paul mentions in Romans, the natural world declares the glory of God, so that man is without excuse in his misdirected worship. I am a character on this stage, and yet, somehow I understand that behind it all is something far surpassing that which I see with my eyes. I sense that there is love behind this rush of atoms, and that keeps me on this course.

I sense that there is love behind this rush of atoms, and that keeps me on this course. Beautifully said, man of Yosemite. The natural world is itself a revelation of God's love. God is love; and "who lives in love lives in God, and God in him." Thank you so much for writing.
