Science and Faith 6-21-07

Good morning, Lord Jesus. I want to breathe in Your Spirit, think Your thoughts, and pray Your prayers. ... "But truly it is the spirit in a mortal, the breath of the Almighty, that makes for understanding" (Job 32:8). Isaac Newton was one of the most brilliant, highly respected scientists of all time. Many call him the father of physics. They recently uncovered more of his personal writings relating to desire to study and understand Scripture and revealing him to be a man with a reverential awe for the wisdom and design of his Creator. He strongly believed in the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy and seems to have trusted the Word of God. I don't know yet about his personal faith or specific beliefs, but I will be interested to find out more how his faith influenced his life. As Isaac Newton's life demonstrates so vividly, there is no conflict between faith and science. All truth is Your truth. All the laws of nature are laws because You are the God of nature. You spoke them into existence and set them in motion, according to Your purpose and Your plan. Any wisdom or understanding that we have comes from You, the Almighty. Father, forgive us for the sin of pride and arrogance that we have any wisdom or understanding apart from You. Help us humble ourselves before our Creator and honor You as the Source of all truth and wisdom. You are the Source of all (Genesis 1:1). In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today!
