When I was playing with Rylan in the floor yesterday, I got caught up in
her eyes. If you’ve ever stared (in a
non-creepy, admiring/studious way) at your kids or someone else you love, you
may know what I mean by getting caught up in their eyes. I was looking at the pattern in her eyes and
the way her pupils were reacting; how her eyes changed shape when I made her
giggle. I thought of the saying, “the
eyes are the window to the soul,” which, by the way, is adapted from Matthew
6:22-23. Staring in awe at her eyes, I thought about how this little girl does
in fact have a soul. I thought about how her very presence in front of me is
all the proof I need of God’s existence.
There is no way the design of this child just happened out of nowhere
for no reason. There is too much purpose
behind those eyes to say they were formed out of chance.
In school, we’re taught (as fact) that following a random “big bang” billions of
years ago, we humans eventually evolved into what we are today. God has been taken out of the creation
equation, and we’re likely considered dumb if we believe he exists, let alone
if he created everything.
Here’s something I never read in a text book. In his work entitled On the
Origin of Species, Charles Darwin stated:
To suppose that
the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to
different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the
correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by
natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest sense (emphasis
added).
Darwin himself admitted that the design of the human eye
challenges his own theory!
The Psalms say “the fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.” They also say “the heavens declare the glory
of God, and the firmament shows his handiwork.”
From the perfect, life-sustaining way the Earth orbits the sun to the
complexity of the human eye, everything in our universe points to intelligent
design. Nature and everything in it
shows the handiwork of an intelligent designer – God.
Maybe evolutionists should take a moment to get caught up
in their loved ones’ eyes. The scientific world would be much better off.
