Psalm
136:2, 7
O
give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth forever. . . .To him
that made great lights: for his mercy endureth forever.
Griffin
had gone through college as an atheist. No one could get him to believe that
there was a God out there somewhere who made everything go. That was before he
began working with the space program. The more he saw the scope and majesty of
the cosmos, the more convinced he was that there had to be someone out there
who authored all the miracles he saw. To see the power of a billion suns
shining through millions of miles of space boggled the mind. They couldn't have
just happened. Some great mind had to have a part in bringing it all about.
Griffin had come far. His briefcase was always packed with pictures and books,
but no book was more important than the Bible that never left his side.
People
who don't believe in God reject Him, not because they know so much, but because
they just haven't learned enough. Even in the most scientific and complex
equation, God can be found. Wisdom comes not when we say we know all we need
to, but when we admit there is much left to learn. Open your heart and mind to
God, and watch the universe unfold.
Prayer:
A billion stars pierce the infinite darkness of space. Surely Your light can
break through the darkness of my ignorance. Shine the light of true wisdom
through me, Lord, and let me share in Your glory. Amen.
