How Can You Say There is No God?

How can you say there is no God?
I see Him all around me,
Every day, in many little things,
So how can you say He cannot be?

He is there in the morning,
In the beautiful dawn sky,
In the sunset in the evening,
And when the sun rides high.

The twinkling stars of evening,
The moon of glowing white,
The comets with their glowing tails,
Tell me He's there in the night.

A newborn baby sleeping,
Safe in it's mothers' arms,
Little children playing,
Full of grace and charm.

Lovers walking arm in arm,
The cooing of a dove,
And friendship's helping hand
All tell me of His love.

Snow-capped mountain grandeur,
Rushing waterfalls,
The bushland and the forests
Filled with sweet bird calls.

The rumble of distant thunder,
A lightening bolt so bright,
Lashing wind and rain,
All tell me of His might.

The roaring of a lion,
The squeaking of a mouse,
As they hunt among the plains,
Or scamper through a house.

God is all around us,
In all the sights and sounds.
Proof of His existence
On this earth abounds.

So how can you say
That God is not real,
When He is there in everything
You see and hear and feel?

"Like 'Rose on a Wet Day', this poem also tells of the great wonderous beauty that God has created.   I can't believe it when people say 'How can there be a God?  Just look at the world!'.    Yes, just look at the world.   Look at the earth.   Look at the green grass, the blue sky and the clouds.   Look at the trees, the flowers, and the bees busying themselves.  Look at the animals of the land and of the water.   Look at the birds of the sky.   Look at the dolphins frolicking in the water.   Look at the sunrise and the sunset.  The great expanse of oceans, the trickle of a stream, the gorges and the rivers and the cascading waterfalls.   Look at the bush, the mountains and the beaches.  Listen to the sounds of the birds, the dolphins, the wild animals and waterfalls.   Look and listen to all of this, and tell me there is no god.  Because no one can create all this beauty we see and hear around us like the majestic power of God! The God.  The omnipotent and omnipresent Creator of heaven, earth, man and all that live within.  How can one say there is no god?   Because you can see Him, hear Him and feel Him in everything everywhere around us!"
