And God Said… And It was So.

It’s actually much easier this way.

I don’t have to pass myself off as a pseudoscientist, regurgitating the arguments that others have made that are far beyond my comprehension (but consistently referencing them nonetheless, so that I sound like I know what I’m talking about).

I don’t have to lose any sleep over the possibility that what is “conclusive” or “undeniable” or “irrefutable” today may very well turn out to be none of those in another decade or so.

I can pause and simply marvel at the wonder of that which defies any logical or scientific explanation, rather than suppress the internal anguish over not having an answer.

I can actually love and appreciate the gifts of science and discovery more, not less, because they continually heighten my reverence for the One who gave them.

I can direct my thanks and gratitude for the wonder of this world to its Creator, rather than needing to anthropomorphize nature, science, or evolution to express my awe.

Read through Genesis 1 when you have a moment. It’s right there, repeatedly stated, so that you don’t somehow miss it.

And God said… and it was so.”

Honestly, if you are willing to entertain the possibility that the world doesn’t revolve around you, and that there might just be a higher authority, then it isn’t a stretch at all to take Him at his Word and believe that it really is his world.

It’s actually much easier this way.
