As the Deer

 As the deer

The Psalmist writes,

“As the deer pants for streams of water, 

so my soul pants for you, O God.”

                                                               Psalm 42:1

There is an old saying “you have to be looking for God to find God”. It’s true if you have the unwavering belief God dose not exist you will not find Him. You have to have faith that God exists.

The book of Hebrews tells us,

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.  

This is what the ancients were commended for. 

By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible....

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Hebrews 11:1-3,6.

God however does not expect blind faith. He simply asks us to look around at his handiwork.

The Psalmist telling us,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Psalm 19:1.

More and more we also see science pointing to a fine tuned universe. A universe so perfectly tuned for life as we know it to exist.

Dr. Arno Penzias 1978 Nobel Prize winner in Physics states,

"Astronomy leads us to a unique event, a universe which was created out of nothing, one with a very delicate balance needed to provide exactly the conditions required to permit life and one which has an underlying (one might say ‘supernatural') plan." Dr. Arno Penzias.

The bottom line however is not what scientist my say or what Christians may say. The bottom line is do you believe in God?

Please think about it.
