The universe is the mirror of God’s attributes. Here, God’s attributes are reflected through his innumerable creatures. The existence of the created realm provides ample evidence of the existence, power, and greatness of the creator, who brought this realm into being. If your sensitivity is alive, you can find God all around you. You can see God everywhere. God’s universe will then become for you living proof of God.
The various forms and activities of living beings are a clear announcement that the creator of this universe is a living and not a lifeless being. When the sun appears in the morning and things that have been covered by the darkness of night become visible once again, it seems as if God has opened his eyes, that God sees the whole cosmos through his eyes. When a river rushes ahead, tumbling down from the mountains, it loudly declares that the creator of this universe is a living, active being. When a tiger pounces on and grabs its prey and brings it under its control, it announces, as it were, that its creator is a being who has everything under his control. The astounding expansiveness of space tells us that the creator is an unlimited being.
