Life can be crudely compared to a jigsaw puzzle. Everything fits snugly into each other. From the precipitation cycle, to particle physics we find nothing independent of anything or anybody. This much will be accepted by even the hardcore materialist. Yet he or she will invariably argue that science and rationality is all we need to understand which piece fits where. There is no ‘God Shaped’ piece that brings it all together.
However, this person has missed the big picture. Why is there a jigsaw puzzle? Why do the parts fit perfectly? Why do we understand which piece fits where? Understanding how the pieces join up in the jigsaw puzzle, does not solve the mystery of its existence or its comprehensibility. Just so, the universe makes sense to us and we appear to have the means to understand how it works. So why? Could it be that there is a creator of the jigsaw puzzle, who designed it so we could understand it? Could it be that that Universe has a Creator that has created its laws and given us the means to understand them? The answer – written in depths of all our souls – is a clear and resounding YES.
