Marveling at God's Creation

I always wonder at those who battle evolution vs. intelligent design. I've never seen the two as mutually exclusive. God created the world and evolution is the means God chose to use. Creation is such a marvelous thing. As we explore it, we get a tiny glimpse into the mind of God.

A friend of mine sent me the following which just goes to show how amazing God's creation really is:

Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida has created a very
interesting page. It begins as a view of the Milky Way Galaxy viewed from a
distance of 10 million light years, and then zooms in toward Earth in powers
of ten. Ten million, to one million, to 100,000 light years until you
finally reach a large Oak tree in Florida. If ever there was a witness to
creation, these folks have captured it for our viewing pleasure!

Once you Click on the site, the software does all the work. You can play it
forward and backward to be amazed over and over. At the end it says
AUTO.... Click on that and review the process in reverse. I hope you enjoy
this. It shows God's handiwork.
