“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” (Gen. 1.1, ESV)

Christians have faith that God created the heavens and the earth (Heb. 11.6). However, atheists claim it is silly to put one’s faith in all-powerful being that could create this world. Interestingly, evolutionists claim that everything evolved over billions of years from nothing. Since evolutionists were not there to observe this process, their belief is just that – faith. Therefore, Christians and atheists both have faith; the Christian, in a Creator and the atheist, in nothing.

Is it reasonable to have faith that something came from nothing? For example, the device you’re holding or the computer you’re using to read this article did not come from nothing. It is impossible! In fact, the materials used to create your device had to already be available for inventors, engineers, and scientists – in other words, intelligent designers. If one was to argue that we can in fact create something from nothing, then they could not use the materials already available and they would have to start with nothing – but then they would have to be God to do that.

It is reasonable to believe in an all-powerful Creator. In fact, creation demands a creator. The question is, are you willing to serve your Creator and reap the blessings promised before the world was even created?

“Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, ‘I have no pleasure in them’”. (Ecclesiastes 12.1, ESV)¹

¹How can you remember your Creator in the days of your youth?

• By choosing to read and study your Bible.
• By choosing good friends and avoiding those who practice wickedness.
• By choosing to stand up for God when no one else will.
• By choosing to pray and be thankful to God throughout the day.
• By choosing to love your enemies instead of wanting to fight them.
• By choosing to serve others, be kind to them, and respectful to all.
• By choosing to obey your teachers and other authority figures.
• By choosing to listen to our parents, honor them, and obey their commands.

There are many other things a young person can do to remember his or her Creator; however, we must maintain these things or else as we grow and experience sin and its deceptive motive, we have no desire for the things of God.
