God is proven real through creation

"For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God." Romans 1:20 NLT

In an article titled “ What running does to the knees, according to a large survey of marathon runners” published by NBC News Tuesday, the following was said: Runners often hear the warning “Keep pounding the pavement and you’ll destroy your knees.” A new study found that runners were not more likely to develop hip or knee osteoarthritis the longer, faster and more frequently they ran. Osteoarthritis, a condition marked by deteriorating cartilage where the bones meet, affects more than 32.5 million adults in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As the cartilage cushioning the bones wears down, osteoarthritis can cause pain, stiffness and even disability. It’s the most common form of arthritis, especially among older adults, and there’s no known cure. Dr. Vehniah Tjong, an orthopedic sports surgeon and co-author of the study said, “Runners should be encouraged by our results. They refute the current dogma that long-distance running predisposes an individual to arthritis of the hip and knee.”

And you know, when it comes to refuting dogma, do you realize that although skeptics and scientists have been trying for hundreds of years to deny the existence of God, they have always come up short? They can't disprove it! In fact, no matter how hard a person argues against the existence of a Creator, the Bible tells us that "since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky" and that "through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature." Which means they have no grounds to reject the truths laid out in the Bible and "no excuse for not knowing God."

So let us not only be encouraged by the fact that the existence of God has not, can not, and never will be disproved, let us boldly and joyfully share this Good News with the lost so that they can be encouraged as well; but more importantly be inspired to accept the One who can be seen in the Word and all of creation. 

Heavenly Father, thank You for showing us how real You are through creation and through the Word. Lord, please give us a heart to understand that there are millions of people who see the earth and the sky and understand there is a Creator who made them both but need to hear the message of salvation. Make us bold to share that. It's in your precious name we pray Jesus. Amen. 

Happy Running!
