Look Deep into Nature

Look deep into nature
Albert Einstein one of the greatest scientist ever to live made an interesting statement. He said,

“Look deep into nature, 

and then you will understand everything better.”

                                                                 Albert Einstein

The psalmist writing several millenniums  before Einstein’s birth wrote,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 

Day after day they pour forth speech; 

night after night they display knowledge. 

There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.” 

                                                                              Psalm 19:1-3.

I have always been of the opinion that science done correctly will show there is a creator behind it all. And science seems to be heading in that direction.
Scientist are looking into nature. They are seeing that everything from the largest galaxies to the smallest subatomic particles have all come together to allow life as we know it here on earth to exist.
To me that speaks of a creator.
Einstein noted,

“Human beings vegetables  or cosmic dust. 

We all dance to a mysterious tune, 

intoned in the distance by an invisible player.”

                                                              Albert Einstein.

I don’t know whether or not Einstein believed in God. I do know that his statement about we all being cosmic dust, dancing to a tune played an invisible player is true.
The Bible tells me,
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1.
In other words God created the very cosmic dust that makes up the Earth the Universe and Everything in it.
God is that “invisible player” Einstein spoke of.
Mankind is God’s creation. That being said God in making mankind did not make robots. He made individuals with a freewill to do as they wish.
That includes the right to believe in God or not to believe in Him. I and billions of people like me believe God exists.
I believe in God not out of blind faith. I believe in God because of what I see around me. I have looked at what the Bible says and what science says and find no contradiction. Both point to a creator.
The choice however is up to you. Each individual must decide what they believe and ultimately live with the consequence of their decision.
Please think about it.

Albert Einstein said,

Einstein whether he knew it or not, I believe got it right. To my way of thinking, the mysterious tune is life, the invisible player is God.
And we, as individuals are made of the cosmic dust of the universe God created.
The writer of the book of Genesis tells us,
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1.
The Bible is not specific as to how God created the universe. As a result He could have made it in six twenty-four hour days or he could have created it over billions of years.
How God created the universe and everything in it is unimportant when it comes to my faith. God could have done it either way.
For me when I look into the heavens and see the greatest galaxies or when I look and see the smallest sub atomic particles, I see order.
I see a universe that is created in such away that life as we know it can exist. 
The Psalmist said,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Psalm 19:1.
The way I see it God who asks us to believe in Him by faith, does not expect us to have blind faith in him. Rather he wants us to have informed faith. For he has placed around us sign post that show his existence. Those signs being the Bible and creation itself. All we as individuals have to do is correctly read those sign posts.
Thus the question becomes. How do you read the sign posts?
Please think about it.

An Invisible Player

An Invisible Player
Albert Einstein said,
“Human beings vegetables  or cosmic dust. We all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible player.”  Albert Einstein 
Stephen Hawking noted,
“It would be very difficult to explain why the universe should have begun in just this way, except as the act of a God who intended to create beings like us,”Stephen Hawking,
Dr. Arno Penzias 1978 Nobel Prize winner in Physics has stated,
“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 Bible States,

“In the beginning

God created the heavens and the earth.” 

                                                 Genesis 1:1.

The New Testament states,
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  
He was with God in the beginning. 
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.  
In him was life, and that life was the light of men....
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. ” John 1:1-4,14.
It has been my observation over the years that the one thing scientist and people of faith have in common is faith.
A scientist will study something carefully, come up with a theory as to how it works or was created, then even if at the time he or she cannot prove it, will believe in that theory until it has been proven or proved to be wrong.
Eienstein is a good example some of his theories were not proven correct until after his death.
Scientist also have another thing in common with people of faith. They study their subject carefully to see they have got everything right.
For me, a believer in Christ Jesus that means I study the Bible, both Old Testament and New Testament and the world around me in order to see if my belief in God is correct.
The Psalmist wrote,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 

Day after day they pour forth speech; 

night after night they display knowledge. 

There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.” 

                                                                               Psalm 19:1-3.

This statement is proven by many scientist that have studied the world around them. The world, the universe we live in has a creator.
Still having said this, I believe each individual needs to be looking for God in order to find him. Faith in God is just that an act of faith. Which is what God wants. The writer of Hebrews telling us,

“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 11:6.
