O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made
them all. - Psalm 104:24
A tiny bird, the lesser whitethroat warbler, spends summers in Germany and winters in
Africa. As the days grow short, the adult birds head south, leaving their young behind.
Several weeks later, the little ones 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 the ability to tell direction by the
stars. God has given them a calendar, a clock, and all the navigational data they need to
fly thousands of miles to their parents' 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. He wrote that man is without excuse if he does not
respond in faith to the God who made it all (Romans 1:20). Our Creator deserves our
recognition and praise!

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
-Alexander
We are spiritually blind if we cannot see God's hand in nature.
