Does The Rain Have A Father? Job 38:28

Does God exist? Is faith blind? Did we really evolve from a warm little pond and/or from apes? Is the bible a work of fiction, just a bunch of man made ideas? Why is our climate and weather changing so rapidly? What are those crop circles all about? What is the message behind them? Are we truly being visited by aliens and if so why? These are all interesting and important questions and questions that have to have an answer for it can't be that we should be left to our own devices and/or more significantly to what the future holds for us all. Where do we begin to understand however these important matters and the profound changes that are occurring on every side? Well for the answer to that we need but look to one simple matter and that is our need to be hydrated! Water is the key for life can't exist without it and we are talking about every living thing and no one better understood this more than the scientist Carl Sagan who wrote in his book Pale Blue Dot:

“The origin of life on Earth seems to have occurred in oceans and shallow tide pools. Life on Earth is made mainly of water, which plays an essential physical and chemical role. Indeed, it’s hard for us water- besotted creatures to imagine life without water.” {Pg. 111 Sagan}

“Life on Earth is intimately connected, for the most basic chemical reasons, with liquid water. We humans are ourselves made of some three quarters water.” {ibid. pg. 233}


It is an observation that the bible itself does not disagree with for as it is written:

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” {Genesis 1:1-2}

So apparently not only was water the first element to exist, but was in existence even as God was about to bring about the creation of life. Surely not too insignificant a matter and how amazing that both science and religion agree together on something water is the stuff of life. Without question this planet earth of ours is a very thirsty place and if that doesn't raise some intriguing questions where the weather is concerned specifically for what is the one substance that the weather goes about providing this planet? Is it not water? Of course most certainly it is and how vitally important a work of nature it is that it should do so. Now consider what can account for such a remarkable system of hydration as this? Evolution!? Are we to actually believe that? Surely that can’t be! Not for such a complex and purpose driven system as this that exists and works because of the interaction of everything from the suns radiation upon the atmosphere, to the effects of the moon and its gravitational forces upon our ocean tide systems and to the way in which the electrical forces of the earth and the air combine together to provide the needed precipitation. Forces that all combine together to work in a most remarkable way to provide just the right kind of an environment so that life can thrive on this terrestrial ball called Earth. A system that by the way revolves over a period of twelve months that are broken up into four seasons of three months each of spring, summer, fall and winter. A system of four seasons that provides this planet with its own particular variety of weather patterns and this as a constant that never really changes from one year to the next. Now wow if this doesn’t bespeak an intelligence of enormous creative power? Certainly that would be the only logical explanation for it and if that then doesn't bring us to the question of whether a God exists or not. Surely there is a Creator and water is the key! WE NEED TO BE HYDRATED!!!
