It's not that somehow we may discover something in how we view ourselves or our environment that we'll find suitably fulfilling, that will help us rise above the daily struggle for existence. I'm saying that everything in the natural world proclaims there's a reason behind everything we see. Just look around. It doesn't take a college degree to see it." Phillip gestured in the darkness and up toward the stars hanging as if within reach." We aren't the center of it all. But I do belive we're of inestimable value, because we were made in the image of a loving and creative God. That's where our sense of self and dignity comes from-from the marvelous Creator who filled the world with such incredible beauty and gave it to us for a time. I all underscores the value He places on us, His creation. .Janette Oke
About This Quote
The world is filled with beauty. The heavens are filled with stars. Even the earth's rocks are alive with life. I believe that all these gems are there for us to enjoy, but the only way to truly appreciate them is to take time to look at them. As I explained in my previous post, people should spend time looking at nature to understand this world better.
