For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
I've been thinking a lot about how we need to be witnesses to those who don't know Christ, but I struggle with this b/c I don't know how or what I could say to them about God when I know they don't believe in Him. Now I know that it is really God that has the power to change their hearts and that I need to just share about Him and what He's done, but I lack faith that God will change their minds and hearts b/c they are so closed to the idea of Him.
But this verse made me have some hope again b/c of its simple truth. It is true that when you think about how the entire world came to be and how many billions of things needed to be put together just right for life to exist and how intricate our bodies are...it's hard not to believe and see how powerful and amazing God is. And this gives me hope b/c even those I cannot even imagine God changing their hearts and minds would have to stop and think about this...and this gives me hope that God will change their hearts and minds. And it also gives me hope b/c I'm reminded through this verse that God meets each person where ever they are at and even those "farthest" away from him are never too far away for him b/c He is present everywhere.
