“All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full….” Ecclesiastes 1:7

Here is a beautiful description of one of the wonders of God’s creation – the water cycle of the earth. God placed perfect balance in the nature He created. The water which arrives into the sea basins, via the rivers from the rain collected on the mountains and plains, and the amount of evaporation afforded by the action of the sun, correspond to such a degree that our seas do not overflow and destroy the earth. Once condensed the evaporation returns to the earth watering it and yet again forming the streams and inlets of water into the sea. Such glorious engineering and balance, is the result of a Power and Intelligence higher than anything man can imagine. God, the Creator of all things, has made everything well and has provided all we need for life to exist and continue on this special planet we call Earth! Everywhere we look and study, whether in the nature that surrounds us on earth, our own bodies, the universe or the microscopic world, we can readily observe the awe-inspiring work of the Almighty's hand, in the design, functionality and thoughtfulness of His creation. It is indeed ‘good’ and it came from the perfectly Good and All-wise God. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!
