Many in the world today view the Bible as something other than the word of God. To them, the book of Genesis and its account of creation just cannot be true. The earth is billions of years old and natural selection and evolutionary processes gave us our world. Even accepting that God exists, it is too much of a stretch to believe that it all happened in just seven literal days. It cannot be true – my teacher says so.
But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind (Job 12:7-10 KJV).
Job never went snorkeling on St. Maarten and likely never encountered a moray eel. This image demonstrates that even this “beast” of the sea declares the glory and handiwork of God.
All creation groans under the weight of sin, but immerse yourself in nature and you cannot fail to discover Him.
