The world around us teaches us many things about the nature of God. By observing creation, we can learn about the attributes of God.
Talking Points:
- God’s power. We see the power of God revealed all over creation.
- God’s glory. The vast size of the universe shows us how big and glorious God is.
- God’s creativity. We see God’s creativity in the variety of unique (and even weird-looking) animals God makes.
- God’s goodness. The goodness of God can be demonstrated through the rain that falls on crops providing food for humans and animals.
- God’s love. We even see the love of God revealed in creation. We see this love in the way that parents (both human and animal) instinctively look after their young. We see it in the way that creation provides for the needs of all living creatures. Romans 1:20
