Can this life make sense?

Probing Proverbs: 3:19-23 By wisdom the LORD founded the earth; by understanding he created the heavens. By his knowledge the deep fountains of the earth burst forth, and the dew settles beneath the night sky. My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them, for they will refresh your soul. They are like jewels on a necklace. They keep you safe on your way, and your feet will not stumble.

How true this thought is! We have traded common sense for so called “science” that is built on theory, speculation and the assumption that everything in this universe was caused by some accidental cosmic gas! Good science is from God and has accomplished much good in this world. Scientific Theory is based on repeatable data, this means we can test again and again, and from that data make a conclusion. Science is not supposed to add assumptions and conjectures. It is a scientific fact that “brand X” soap floats, how do we know that, because we dropped a bar of that soap into a bucket of water 100 times, and each time it floated. We cannot recreate the creation of the universe. The origin of the universe and civilization is based on artifacts, and historical evidence. No matter which “theory” you choose to believe, an accident or a design, it requires faith. 
Is it really that ridiculous to look at the design of all around us, not to mention all that is in us…just how the human eye works for example...is it “blind faith” to believe there was a designer? Is it common sense to find a bone and from that bone tell us how it lived, behaved and died? From a bone? Even when they try to date that bone, no one ever discusses the “assumptions” that are being supplied, like everything was lead-free or quite a few assumptions concerning Carbon. I have no problem if someone wants to remove God from the picture and believe they that everything “just” happened, believing they are at the top of the animal chain, a glorified ape; that is their decision, I will respect that and not demean them. What I don’t understand is why they think it makes no sense that a designer with wisdom made all there is. Both take faith, and the evidence for a designer and that humans are a unique creation, no other living thing on this planet possesses a God consciousness and a moral consciousness, humans alone do, so a Designer makes perfect sense.

To make sense of our world and our existence we must decide which path we will live on. If you are nothing more than an accident, then life is based on luck and fate. It is difficult to sense purpose or destiny on that path. If, however, you take the path of Devine design, and seek to know the Designer, your life was on purpose, and Someone greater than you or your parents wanted you here. When you have purpose and destiny, you can take what appears to be non-sense, and with help from your Maker, discern where the common sense is. You will never understand everything…how can the finite understand the Infinite…still, with His help, you will be able to navigate life and enjoy what it should be.

When we consider how important wisdom is in our life, we need to see how God has structured it to be a partnership between His input and our input. Some try to make wisdom all God and none of us. However, the words paired in this Proverb demonstrates that partnership. Our common sense must be used, as God grants us discernment. We are accountable to use the mind God gave us to learn from the lessons life produces. As we weigh our decision in that light, we also seek God’s gift of discernment. Those two abilities work together enabling us to take knowledge, (data) and know how to use it. Yes, there are times when we are at a loss and God alone supplies all we need, but His norm is to increase our growth by making us use what we have and then He fills in the gaps.

The so what?  What do you believe concerning the existence of the universe? Why? What do you believe about your existence? Why? Is it possible to you that a Being (God) planned you, working in concert with your parents? They participated in your creation, yet God was intimately involved also. What would that reality do to your self worth? Are you willing, in spite of ridicule from some, to commit yourself to seek “sense” in this life and then seek God for discernment?
