We can learn much about the Creator through what He has created. I have heard it said that “creation is God’s second book”. We see throughout the Bible God speaking to His people through images, pictures, and visual scenes that teach. King Solomon displays this principle clearly in Proverbs when he wrote:

I went by the field of the lazy man, and by the vineyard of the man devoid of understanding; and there it was, all overgrown with thorns; Its surface was covered with nettles; Its stone wall was broken down. When I saw it, I considered it well; I looked on it and received instruction: A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to rest; So shall your poverty come like a prowler, and your need like an armed man. (Proverbs 24:30-34)
