Nothing Great Just Evolves

by Reese Turner

“In the beginning”, that’s how the story starts,
In the book which touches Christian’s hearts.
Our Bible tells how from darkness came to be;
The land, the light, heavens, you and me.

Some doubt the story as it was written then
Of how God, who, made all we know now, did begin…
I’ll admit my own understanding of it all is hazy
But, to think it all just “evolved” is just crazy.

I hear a baby’s cries as it’s new born and free,
I feel the warmth of love with friends and family,
I watch the planets rotate in organized routes;
Without a Creator’s master plan? Got my doubts!

I hear happy laughter among people having fun,
I see mountains, plains and valleys’ rivers run
I watch life begin across species in similar ways,
Has to be in a Master's plan, the organizing lays.

To they who say the Bible’s words be lies
I say, look all around, open up your eyes!
Of course, with all stories there are variations
Written by those in ancient times and situations.

But, mere words are not always full reality
It’s what's here that wasn’t, that’s the proof for me.

"Orbits" alone tell me that there is a Creator. I've seen results of "big bangs" and what's left is broken, jagged and disorganized - not round and routed! The fact that most animals propagate using the male+female=offspring system says "Master Plan" to me. The fact that it is fun, further proves a God of love! No question!
