Some days are diamonds...

Believe it or not, there are days when I love my job. This is where I worked all day today. It's in a little valley in Union County. Warm weather, blue skies, and no one to bother me. That, my friends, is what I like to call a good day.

I had a Scripture verse stuck in my head all day that sums up the beauty of nature.

For His invisible attributes, namely, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. --Romans 1:20

"The entire natural world bears witness to God through its beauty, complexity, and design."

God's power and majesty are clearly revealed in the world He has made. But mankind rejects Him. No one can say that there is insufficient evidence that He exists. His existence is all around us.

Matthew Henry puts it this way:

"The power and Godhead of God are invisible things, and yet are clearly seen in their products. He works in secret but manifests what He has wrought, and therein makes known His power and Godhead."

There is no excuse, no "show me more, God, maybe then I'll believe." He has shown Himself since the beginning of time. The order of creation itself is proof that He is.

I am. God is.
