I love this (below). Especially as a scientist, this provides such clarity. This is how I’ve been explaining to others how I can easily reconcile “the laws of science” with my beliefs. I mean, OK, yes gravity exists, and when you drop a ball from a roof it falls at whatever the rate is (96 ft/sec?? Damien, help me out on that–I’m probably way off). But who put those laws in place? And when a cell needs to divide, you get all these reactions associated with DNA replication. My goodness, what a ton of reactions that have to occur for this not to result in mutations! Who created all these processes? And natural selection occurs and can easily be observed. Well, who came up with that process? Exactly, God did all this! Wow!! God created it all. If there is life in another solar system, God made it happen. Remarkable. This all provides such strength to me! As always, thanks for these bits of wisdom!

God’s Laws
“The day is yours, the night also is yours. You made the light and the sun.
You set all the boundaries of the earth. You made summer and winter.”
Psalm 74:16–17
The “law of Moses” was God’s law, not Moses’. God gave it to Moses; Moses did not write a single line of it, and Israel was preserved in peace when they obeyed that law. Likewise, the “laws of physics” and “laws of the universe” are God’s laws. God created this universe and the laws that are in it; the universe did not make its own laws. And it is held together by the laws He instituted for it.
