The Creation Witnesses to God's Work

God Created the World

God Created Plants and Animals

Job 12:7-13 Amplified Bible

7
“Now ask the animals, and let them teach you [that God does not deal with His creatures according to their character];
And ask the birds of the air, and let them tell you;
8
Or speak to the earth [with its many forms of life], and it will teach you;
And let the fish of the sea declare [this truth] to you.
9
“Who among all these does not recognize [in all these things that good and evil are randomly scattered throughout nature and human life]
That the hand of the Lord has done this,
10
In whose hand is the life of every living thing,
And the breath of all mankind?
11
“Does the ear not put words to the test,
Just as the palate tastes its food [distinguishing between the desirable and the undesirable]?
12
“With the aged [you say] is wisdom,
And with [a]long life is understanding.

Job Speaks of the Power of God

13
“But [only] with Him are [perfect] wisdom and might;
He [alone] has [true] counsel and understanding.

For Reflection

God's creation is dynamic.  It has been designed to be eternal. It evolves to meet the demands of its existence. What we perceive as good going unrewarded and evil rewarded is a matter of perception. In the long run, the goodness of the universe survives. Our suffering corrects us and as a result, humans survive.  We in our selfish endeavors place humanity at risk, but history has revealed that we endure in goodness.

Pray

Pray so that you will find and celebrate the goodness of God's creation.
