The most genius Inventor!

The other day we were talking to two young men in the street and they were saying that they don't believe in God because there is no proof that He exists. We tried to talk to them but they were not really interested and so we continued on our way. Not even ten minutes later after a good rain storm, the clouds parted and we saw the most beautiful sunset ever! The way that the sunlight hit the clouds and the ski turned just the right color with orange and pink and blue. We looked and it and we were overcome with awe as we contemplated the beauty before our eyes. I thought of the scripture where Alma is talking to someone who does not believe in God and is telling him that there is not proof, and tells him if there is a God to show him a sign. He said "Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of all these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator." (Alma 30:44)



God has made all things for our benefit and for our pleasure. Think of the most crazy invention or the most genius invention (like the new Ipad or the space shuttle or whatever is your favorite invention), now every single one of those things has a creator or an inventor. They wouldn't exist without someone to come up with the idea and create it. It is foolishness to think that something as amazing as our bodies or the earth itself doesn't have a Creator. Everything around me is proof and I know that God exists and more than that He is also the Father of our spirits and He loves us and wants what is best for us in all the ways possible.
There are a couple of ways that we can know that He exists, but the most important way is through prayer. When we ask if He is there we can feel of His spirit tells to our spirits that He is there and that He loves us.
That is my challenge to each and every one of you!
If you want to read more about this read in Alma 22
