  7. U. S. Understandable work
  8. about the beauty of creation,
  9. systemic
  10. uh
  11. greetings, friends.
  12. Have you ever stopped a moment to ponder the
  13. incredible beauty of the words found in Genesis?
  14. one verse 1
  15. in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
  16. How amazing how wonderful.
  17. But then the second verse tells us more.
  18. The earth was without form
  19. and void.
  20. Now void is an empty space, nothingness.
  21. How incredible God created the earth, the sky, the sun,
  22. the moon, the stars and living things
  23. out of nothing at all.
  24. What a powerful loving creator God.
  25. And yet this incredible truth is hardly recognized in the world today.
  26. The devil has worked hard to obliterate
  27. the truth we find in God's word
  28. In John 1 1-5 we read
  29. in the beginning was the word
  30. and the word was with God.
  31. And the word
  32. was God.
  33. He was in the beginning
  34. with God.
  35. All things were made through him
  36. and without him, nothing was made
  37. that was made
  38. in him was life.
  39. And the life was the light of men and the light
  40. shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it.
  41. Nevertheless,
  42. God invites us through his power
  43. to be lights in the world today to let the world know
  44. that there is a creator God who made them who loves them,
  45. who died for them and who is one day soon coming back to redeem his own
  46. in order to fully understand the creator.
  47. It is important to be out in nature where we can observe
  48. and appreciate his creation.
  49. In the wonderful book, christ's object lessons, we read the following
  50. through the creation. We are to become acquainted with the creator.
  51. The book of Nature is a great lesson book
  52. which in connection with the scriptures we are to
  53. use in teaching others of his character and guiding
  54. lost sheep back to the fold of God.
  55. As the works of God are studied,
  56. the Holy Spirit flashes conviction into the mind
  57. in these lessons. Direct from nature.
  58. There is a simplicity and purity that makes them of the highest value.
  59. All need the teaching to be derived from this source
  60. in itself. The beauty of nature leads the soul away from sin and worldly attractions
  61. and toward purity. Peace
  62. and God.
  63. Thus the mental powers will be strengthened
  64. the character developed
  65. the whole life
  66. and no build
