Did God create the universe?

I was out of town for work a couple of weeks ago. During the evenings I had a chance to go catch a movie. An advertisement for a tv show came on during the previews. It was advertising a tv show called "Curiosity". The episode it was advertising was called "Did God create the universe?" A famous physicist, Stephen Hawking challenges the existence of God through one of his theorems. He tries prove this scientifically. I learned at a young age that God speaks to our hearts and minds. Remove and close the heart and God will not be able to communicate with you. It really is not a big mystery as some make it out to be. The key to solving this question requires humility.

"We need not be ashamed of spiritural truths. Beacause of the temptation to intellectual pride, always remember that the sun rises and shines on gentle and simple alike, so the light of truth beams as directly upon the simplest and humblest of God's children as upon you. Do not, therefore, be ashamed of spiritual truths. Do not reject them or think you must amend them because they are common to you and to those who have not had the advantage of higher education. Be not ashamed of Jesus Christ because the poor believe in him and some of the mighty of the world do not. Do not let your scientific intellect discard truths merely because they are not subject to demonstrable proof. Open your hearts and souls so that you may have understanding of spiritual truth." Howard W. Hunter

God did create the universe. He is the great Creator. Do you want to know for yourself? First, humble yourself, then sincerely ask. Do as it says in Matthew:

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."
