3-D Under The Sea

Read: Job 41:1-11

God created ... every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded. --- Genesis 1:21

The Bible In One Year:
Deuteronomy 3-4
Mark 10:32-52

My wife and I went to see a large-screen 3-D documentary on life in the sea. We put on plastic eye-glasses that created a 3-dimentional effect and then marveled as one surprise after another jumped out at us from the screen.

Predatory sharks swam dangerously close to us. Giant turtles tumbled and swirled so close we felt we could reach out and touch them. One exotic sea creature dangled what looked like a lure in front of its mouth to attract smaller fish. The narrator marveled that the life-forms that produce coral reefs inexplicably spawn on only one night out of the whole year. Their off-spring then catch currents that carry them to other parts of the ocean.

As I sat there, I thought, How can anyone think all of this happened by chance? The fingerprints of a Designer are on every sea creature we've seen! As Christians we know that time and random chance could never result in such perfectly designed sea creatures. Instead, we accept the witness of God's Word that "God created ... every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded" [Gen. 1:21].

The more we learn about life in our world, the more we recognize God's eternal power and worship Him as Lord of creation [Rom. 1:20]. --- Dennis Fisher

The greatness of our God is seen
In sky and sea and forest green;
And living creatures great and small
Reveal the God who made them all. --- D. De Haan

ALL CREATION SINGS GOD'S PRAISE.
