God or YHWH is present in His creation. His presence can be found in everyday miracles and wonders. For some it requires quite a bit of faith to acknowledge the presence of God or YHWH, but He is there. He is there when no one else is. There is no other explanation for the wonders of His creation. He created all living creatures and the substances of this world.
I, personally, have always believed that God or YHWH has existed. – Though some scientists have dismissed His authority and existence through evolution. I have often thought and pondered the theory of YHWH not existing. It makes every other theory or idea chaotic and unreasonable. –Which the vast field of science is not. In the unfathomable world of YHWH’s creations, sometimes it is hard to believe that a Supreme Being created our bodies out of the dust of the earth. I will not deny that I have pondered and wracked my thoughts over this concept, but I believe that YHWH or God exists with all of my being.
YHWH or God has always been there for me when all else has failed. When I was ten years old, I became lost in the woodlands of northern Wisconsin. At the time, my friends just figured I was playing a game with them, but when I did not return within two hours they started to become very worried. One of my friends has a Rottweiler dog. The dog led me straight through the woods unto a desolate gravel road. I never once was a friend of the dog; in fact, the personality of the dog frightened me. –Most likely by its large size and frightening manner. YHWH led me through the woods to safety, but only after I desperately cried out for help. There is nothing quite so frightening as the thought of being alone and lost. Down the gravel road I walked until I found a group of bird hunters. Granted in today’s society that could have turned into a very nasty situation, especially since I was a young woman alone and lost. YHWH protected me, though. The hunters took me to a neighbor’s house and I was returned to my friends. Though I have many experiences and occasions of YHWH’s protection and guidance, it is proof to me that He exists. How else would I be able to explain occasions in which I have escaped unthinkable situations?
