Prayer: God, help me to understand your purpose in creation and find what you desire me to do in the midst of it.
Intelligence in Creation
Several years ago I watched the film “Planet Earth” produced by the BBC network. I had never seen the earth filmed in such clarity. The high definition cinematography helped a bit. The beauty of earth is remarkable, but as I have read more, the earth is placed in a perfect spot to survive.
Scientists refer to this perfect placement as “The Goldilocks Zone.” Why this name? Goldilocks is a story of a girl who breaks into a bear family house, sits on chairs, eats their food, and sleeps in their beds. It’s a great bedtime story for children; “Watch out kids for girls who break into your house at night.” In the story, Goldilocks picks the chair that was the right size, food that was the best temperature and bed with the right amount of softness. Basically, she picked each item based on what was “just right.”
When it comes to planets, it seems that Earth was “just right” for life to exist. Several scientific reasons have been posed: the distance from the sun, the stability of the sun, the moon tilting the earth just right, Jupiter pulling meteors away from striking Earth. These reasons paint part of the picture. However, Genesis chapter one gives us a more to see. It was not by chance or luck that Earth ended up in the perfect place. An infinitely intelligent designer placed this planet where He wanted it to be for life to thrive. In Genesis chapter one we read a refrain: God looks at his creation and calls it good. God created the world “good” by it’s placement.
Questions to Ask Yourself:
- Have you thought about Earth being in the perfect place for life to exist?
- When you think about God creating the Earth and life in it, do you think He placed you purposefully?
- If God placed you on earth purposefully, what do you think he placed you here to do?
What’s Next?
- Spend some time thinking about God who created and placed earth in the perfect place for life to thrive. Then write down a few reasons you think God has placed you on this earth.

God chooses to reveal himself to humanity through both his word and his world. The skies declare his glory and the ground produces life only by his grace. Over the course of 11 days, we will examine scripture that illustrates the Immensity, Intelligence, Intricacy, and Intimacy of our Creator!
