“All genuine scientific research and discoveries ultimately point to the supreme ruler who created the universe; truth never contradicts itself. Nature reveals God's powerful hand, while the Bible reveals His profound grace of redemption for mankind.”

Joseph Edkins · Preface to *Western Learning Enlightenment* and Discourse on Scientific Ethics (1898)

Scripture

Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

Reflection

The vast universe and the intricate workings of all things are the unspoken, faithful hand of God. Scientific exploration is not meant to replace faith, but rather to lead us into this silent masterpiece of nature, allowing us to glimpse the wisdom and glory of the Creator. Though we cannot see God, the orderly workings of all things already reveal His eternal power. May we maintain a sense of awe in our daily explorations and work, comprehending God's truth from what we see, and not becoming lost in the clamor of the world.
