I believe in a God of love. How else to explain cardinals, blue jays, robins, goldfinches, golden retrievers, echinacea, sunflowers, lilacs, daisies, fall colors, spring daffodils, gentle breezes and roaring waves crashing into a beach? Sunsets and sunrises?
It’s a beautiful world, and very often you don’t have to look far and wide to find the beauty. God paints the sky in broad strokes, and he fine-tunes the butterfly with intricate detail.
There is too much of the artist in nature for any other explanation: A loving God designed it all.
