The first part of the sign was Psalm 104:24 (KJV): "O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches." The second part of the sign right below had these words: "Father Almighty, wonderful Lord, Wondrous Creator, be ever adored; Wonders of nature sing praises to You, wonder of wonders—I may praise too!"
When you look upon something so beautiful as the Grand Canyon, you have one of two conclusions to make: One, God created this masterpiece, and it reflects His glory and creative genius, or two, you have to conclude that by random chance, the magnificent Grand Canyon simply came into existence. Over eons of time, the ancient Colorado River cut through the massive granite, and shazam, you have the Grand Canyon! I know there are many people who adhere to the second conclusion. They do not believe in God but will exclaim, "Isn't evolution amazing!" I and all theists believe that God created the world and all the beauty within it. As Frank Turek states it so well, "I do not have enough faith to be an atheist."
The Bible says that creation declares the glory of God and displays His handiwork (Psalm 19:1). Paul writes in Romans 1:20, "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse." Will you stop and pause a minute and join in with creation and declare God's glory, exalting Him for His handiwork? "Wonders of nature sing praises to You, wonder of wonders—I may praise too!"
