My friend Captain Craig Jiovanni at the best Key West fishing charter boat, the Ultra Grand Slam, has an article to that effect as well. He told me that he’d not seen any oil when he was out either.

Too often fear drives what we do and we don’t rely on God to protect us. Perhaps it’s because we have stepped out of covenant with Him or perhaps we just don’t have a close enough relationship with Him to know how capable and desirous He is to help us. Or maybe it’s just a bad day and our faith is weak. Whatever the cause we need to let Him help us back up to our feet, brush ourselves off and just replace that fear with faith that will bring any problem to its knees!

Well, it could come about in the following way. It could be that at some earlier time, somewhere in the universe, a civilization evolved, probably by some kind of Darwinian means, probably to a very high level of technology, and designed a form of life that they seeded onto perhaps this planet. Now, um, now that is a possibility, and an intriguing possibility. And I suppose it’s possible that you might find evidence for that if you look at the details of biochemistry, molecular biology, you might find a signature of some sort of designer.

Now tell me please:

1. Why are aliens easier to believe than God?
2. Why must these aliens have evolved by “some kind of Darwinian means”?
3. If you “might find evidence for that” then why is it necessary to believe it’s aliens and not God? It’s the same argument, just a different source.

One commenter on another blog said that this was the ultimate in arrogance because imagine the aliens scratching their heads, if they have them, saying “Who is Darwin?” I say, to quote a song, “It’s easier to believe that the Creator said in a moment, ‘Let it be.’ than to swallow some jive about crawling from the oceans or swinging down from the trees.”  Amen brother! Finally, here’s a newly released photograph of their “random occurrences” that anyone without a hatred for God can see is much more than random.  God has created beauty in places we are just now discovering a tiny portion of.  This is being called the “Hand of God” and is cool!

Hand of God

God is in control and His kingdom is without lack or need or recession… it has no dependency on people spending money, the government bailouts or any other situation.

I’m thankful for the servants that God has put in place to remind us of these things.  One of them is Dave Ramsey who is a financial expert and has a huge ministry to help others get out of debt and stay that way.  He has a lot of real-world terminology instead of the fancy eco-speak such as “stupid tax” when we do something dumb and end up paying for it and your “I love debt score” which is your credit rating.  He talks to people on the regular-person level and shows us how to eliminate our debt.  He also has a network of like-minded professionals in different fields such as real estate, tax consultation, etc.

This is not an ad for him or his work but I do want to mention it since it is a perfect example of my point… we are tied into God’s economy, not the world’s system.  Dave is doing a ‘Town Hall for Hope’ meeting on April 23 to kick off a national and ongoing movement to bring back hope to all Americans.  You can find out about the meeting at Town Hall for Hope including local venues where you can participate with other people just like you.

Fear kills – use your faith (trust) in God to get through any tough times and He will be faithful to do as He promises in His Word. Remember, faith can not operate in the presence of fear!
