How Awesome is this?

   God not only knows where each sparrow falls or the condition of all his children everywhere, but He knows where every scrap piece of paper you have ever seen lying on the ground or blowing in the wind or every rock lying on the roadside is and has been, or will be. Even more so He knows where each molecule, atom or sub-atom that makes up that paper, that rock or any other thing, animate or inanimate, is, has been, came from, or will be, forever. He knows, because He created all, sustains all, and without Him nothing would exist.
   Some scientists spend all their time trying unsuccessfully to disprove God's existence, but do you really believe that all the wonders and intricacies of this world came about and continue by some chance? What a depressing thought. No hope or life after death just nothingness. I’m not going to accept that, because I know God exists and His son came to save all sinners from eternal damnation. How do I know? I have proof of God’s existence; the Bible, and here’s why. I’ve never found a mistake or contradiction in the Bible, anywhere. Have you? Not just something you don’t understand, that no one can explain, or that seems to defy the laws of nature (those are God’s laws by the way to change as He sees fit), but something that is clearly in error or that contradicts some other part of the Bible. I believe that God inspired the Bible and it is perfect, and by its perfection it proves itself, because no man or men could write such a complex treatise without error or contradiction. Not just a short paper or a long book, but an immense writing covering thousands of years without an error or contradiction. Only God could do that through inspired men.
   Don’t be deceived by your own perception of man’s great intellectual and physical abilities. God has more power than anyone can conceive and our abilities not only wane in his presence, but cease to even be relevant. There are things that exist in the universe that the greatest mind among us cannot even contemplate, let alone understand. And the most amazing thing is that an all-powerful God would even give a thought to insignificant humans like us. Yet He did and He also went to the trouble to design a plan that soothes his wrath toward us and includes us in eternal existence with Him. Even though we are so concerned with ourselves most of the time that we forget about Him; and not only refuse to give him the honor and praise that He deserves, but some of us try to disprove His existence. So how awesome is a God that saves us despite all of that?
