An Observation
The Psalmist wrote,

“The fool says in his heart, 

“There is no God.” 

                                      Psalm 14:1.

Billy Graham the great American Evangelist said,
“I can't prove it scientifically, that there's a God, but I believe.”
                                                                                        Billy Graham.
I’m with Billy Graham on this. We may not be able to sit down and make a scientific formula that proves the existence of God. That however doesn’t preclude his existence.
We can however see God’s handiwork. The Psalmist telling us,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 

                                                             Psalm 19:1.

I do not believe that the universe came into existence randomly that takes more faith than I have. I can however see the hand of God the creator in the universe.
Just take a look around from the largest galaxies to the smallest subatomic particle every thing is perfectly harmonized to create life as we know it. This to me suggests there is a creator.
I’m not hung up on whether God created the world in billions of years or in six days. Such a thing is immaterial to my faith.
The fact of the matter is I believe God exists and the more I see and observe the world around me the more I see His hand.
Furthermore I believe the God that created the heavens and the earth entered this world in the form of His one and only Son Jesus Christ. He did this in order to point mankind to heaven.
Yes I know this sounds at the very least foolishness but I believe it is true. The Apostle Paul wrote.

“For the message of the cross is foolishness

 to those who are perishing, 

but to us who are being saved 

it is the power of God.” 

                                  1 Corinthians 1:18.

I think all too often man want’s God to operate the way he thinks things should be done. God however does not do this. God works in his own ways.
It would be very easy for God to show himself and force everyone to worship Him but God does not want that. In creating mankind he made each individual unique, with a freewill to do as they wished even if it meant not believing in Him.
God requires the individual to have faith in him. The writer of Hebrews stating,

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 

and certain of what we do not see.” 

                                                       Hebrews 11:1

“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.

God I believe has shown Himself to mankind in various ways, the creation of the universe being just one way, the Hebrew prophets was another, the Bible yet another, and even by entering the Universe he created in the form of his one and only Son Jesus Christ.
The writer of Hebrews telling us,
“In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.  
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” Hebrews 1:1-3  
This is what I and all Christians believe. The choice however is entirely up to you the reader.
Please think about it.

A Statement from Psalms

A Statement from Psalms
The Bible makes these three statements,

“The fool says in his heart, 

“There is no God.” 

                        Psalm 14:1

I am under no delusion that someone claiming to be an ardent Atheist will be changed by what I say. I find such people while wanting me to listen to their argument and come over to their way of thinking, most have no intentions of believing what I say.
Their mind is closed.
The logic of an Atheist for me doesn’t make sense.
In order to beyond doubt know there is no God one has to have been everywhere and know everything. These are attributes only God has. Therefor they must me god.
So saying there is no God is wrong. For if they are all knowing and have been everywhere, attributes of God, they in effect are saying “I am god”.
Which by their logic means they don’t exist. Which we know is untrue because they exist.
Most people I find who claim to be Atheist are really people who have never bothered to look for God. They have never looked rationally at the facts that are out there.
Scientist agree the universe has a beginning. The big bang. The Bible agrees with this. Traditional Christians will tell you the universe was made in six day. Less traditional believers in God, who have looked at the bible and science will tell you the universe like most astrophysicist was made over billions of years. That the day mentioned in the book of Genesis represent epochs.
How God made it is unimportant God is God and could have done it either way. What is important is that God exists and that through creation we can see God. The Psalmist telling us,

“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.

One Astrophysicist I heard noted that the earth is in the exact perfect place in the universe for life to exist as we know it. That every thing from the largest galaxies to the smallest subatomic particle is in the right place to create life as we know it. That this points to a creator.
I firmly agree. I firmly believe that science done right will prove there is a God who created it all.
However the choice is yours. I cannot and will not impose my beliefs on anyone. All I would ask of each person who reads my blogs is to consider what I say and explore for yourself the Bible and science.
There is an excellent series of videos available on You tube by an astrophysicist and pastor named Huge Ross. Who focuses of the Bible and science. I would ask that you take time to view it with an open mind and make your own decision.
