A tiny bird, the lesser whitethroat warbler, summers in Germany and winters in Africa. As the days grow short, the adult birds head south, leaving their little ones behind. Several weeks later, the young fly across thousands of miles of unfamiliar land and sea to join their parents. How do they find a place totally unknown to them? Experiments have shown that they have an instinctive knowledge of longitude, latitude, and an ability to tell direction by the stars. God has given them a calendar, a clock, and all the navigational data they need to fly those thousands of uncharted miles to their parent’s side.
The evolutionist says that our amazing and complex world developed by chance. But is this easier to accept than to believe that God created this amazing warbler, and thousands of other such creatures? To me, ascribing this to chance is absurd.
God’s wisdom is plainly observable in the works of His creation. His handiwork in nature speaks so strongly for His existence and power that Paul used it as an argument to establish man’s guilt and condemnation. Paul wrote that man is without excuse if he does not respond in faith to the God who made it all.
Our Creator God deserves our recognition and our praise. – David C. Egner
The God who fashioned earth and sky,
Sun, moon, and stars beyond compare,
Cannot His workmanship deny;
His fingerprints are everywhere. – Seal
He is spiritually deaf who cannot hear the voice of God in nature.
