Florida Reflections

There is something about the sunshine,
the deep blue waves
crashing on the shore,
the white caps foaming,
the orange and purple sunset,
the white, fine sand seeping into my toes,
the perfectly beautiful shells,
the mystery and magic of the ocean deep

that make me wonder how people can believe

God does not exist.

Well put. Oh, how I wish I could feel that white sand between my toes. After about 15 spring breaks, I'm having withdrawl! I will have to settle for tan sand at Lake Michigan this summer. Not so bad.

Creation reveals God's glory!

Psalm 19:1 says, "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth his handiwork." You can't see all that God has made and not conclude someone made it. Design implies a designer. In Romans 1 the apostle Paul expands that concept. Verses 18-20 say, "The wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness, because that which may be known of God is manifest in them [a reference to conscience]; for God hath shown it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse." (God Has Spoken, John MacArthur)
