How can you not see it?
My daughter Elin said something yesterday that was so deep...
She said, “People see something so perfect and immediately say, ‘That had to be AI.’ But then they look at the perfection of the oceans, gravity, the way the earth spins... and they don’t say, ‘That had to be God.’”
That’s a whole sermon in one sentence.
Think about it.
We look at a string of well written words and how perfect they are structured... and we’re quick to say, “Oh yeah, that’s AI. Too flawless to be human.”
But then we stand in front of a mountain range... or stare at the detail in a sunflower... or consider the precise balance of oxygen in the atmosphere... and instead of whispering, “That’s God,” we start grasping for accidents and probabilities and anything we can reach for that isn’t Him.
It’s wild.
We’re quick to assign credit to something created by man... But hesitant to give glory to the One who made man.
We’ll say, “It’s obvious this was generated” about something written by AI... But somehow we don’t say, “It’s obvious this was designed” when we look at the cosmos or the complexity of our own bodies.
Do we even hear ourselves?
We think an app writing a sentence is worthy of awe... But an ocean stopping at the shoreline isn’t?
We think AI generating a face is impressive...
But the human brain being able to process over 70,000 thoughts in a day isn’t?
We see a perfect paragraph and say, “That couldn’t be random,” Yet we see galaxies in motion and try to argue, “It all just happened.”
We’ve trained ourselves to believe the artificial is intelligent... But we’ve closed our hearts to the fact that divine intelligence holds the universe together.
And the deeper truth is this...
It’s not just skepticism. It’s resistance. We don’t just struggle to believe it’s God... We go out of our way to prove it’s not. Because if it is God, then we’re accountable. If it is God, then we’re not the center. If it is God, then maybe we’ve missed Him... and that’s a terrifying thought.
So we settle for man made answers to explain away a God formed world.
We reduce divine fingerprints to random patterns. We rewrite wonder into coincidence. All to avoid the possibility that there is a Creator who sees us, knows us, and has something to say about how we live.
But the evidence is everywhere.
If the earth spun even a little faster, violent storms would rip across the globe nonstop. A little slower, and we’d be scorched in the day, frozen at night.
If gravity were just a touch weaker or stronger, nothing would hold. And yet here we are... standing, moving, breathing, because gravity does exactly what it was told to do.
How about the oceans Salted with just the right balance to sustain life.
The atmosphere? Packed with precisely 21% oxygen, not a percent more or less.
The tilt of the earth? 23.5 degrees. Just right to create seasons and regulate climate.
Even our own bodies are masterpieces. THINK ABOUT IT. Our circulatory systems, immune defenses, fingerprints that never match another.
We don’t need more proof.
We need clearer eyes.
Since the creation of the world, God’s invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
Romans 1:20
God has never stopped revealing Himself.
So why have we stopped looking?
Maybe because it’s easier to believe in a machine we made than a God who made us. Maybe because artificial intelligence doesn’t demand surrender, but divine truth does. Maybe because it’s more comfortable to be impressed by a robot than undone by a Savior.
But I’m telling you, He’s here. In every detail. Every rhythm. Every perfectly held breath.
And maybe today is the day we stop explaining Him away...
And start letting Him in.
