Whom do you worship and why?
At sundown in the pleasant June weather, I sat with a family member in the amphitheater at Carlsbad Caverns to see the bat flight. As the sun set over the New Mexico landscape, we sat with 200 other people to watch the splendid show of unique creatures flying out into the night to search for food. We spoke in hushed tones so we would not disturb the bats.
The bats are like us in a few respects. They are mammals that care for their young, they have five digits, and they are self-sufficient. They are, however, quite different from us. The bats we saw use echolocation to tell them where they are going. If the baby bats at Carlsbad fall to the bottom of the cave, the mothers do not bother to pick them up. In another part of the world, one type of bat adopts the baby bats that fall.
How amazing that God created so many types of creatures that can adjust to varied environments! Why are we human beings, who possess limited knowledge of the universe, incredulous that God could create invisible beings? God’s creation is marvelous with infinite variation. The more we see and know of the creation, the more we should want to glorify the Creator!
“For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him.” (Colossians 1:16)
To worship anything or anyone that God has created is an assault on our Lord who loves us. Worship the Creator! "Worship God." (Revelation 22:9)
