A Godly View of Life, Chapter Thirteen

"JEHOVAH is in truth God," said the prophet Jeremiah.  "He is the living God."  (Jeremiah 10:10) Furthermore, Jehovah God is the Creator of all living things. Heavenly creatures said to him: "You created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created." (Revelation 4:11) In a song of praise to God, King David said: "With you is the source of life." (David 36:9)  Life, then, is a gift from God.

Jehovah also sustains our lives. (Acts 17:28)  He provides the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the land we live on.  (Acts 14:15-17)  Jehovah has done this in a way that makes life enjoyable. But to enjoy life to the full, we need to learn God's laws and obey them. -Isaiah 48:17, 18.
