I believe that nature is one of the biggest proofs of God. Sure, you can also take the opposite view and say it's random, but I think creation speaks for itself. Paul also made this declaration in Romans, "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 people are without excuse," (Romans 1:20 NIV).
The more science moves ahead and we get more and more data, it only serves to reinforce my faith that none of this happened just by chance. The sheer complexity of all life is just astounding. It is remarkable to consider the odds of things just lining up randomly to not just create one type of life, but an entire Earth full of it. When I ponder these things, it helps remind me of how great our God is. There is nothing too great or too small for him. He can handle whatever we bring before him, whatever load we are carrying. For the God who created everything also created you and I, "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb," (Psalms 139:13 NIV). No matter what you believe about yourself or what you are going through, God loves you and he has a plan and purpose for your life.
