We know that in the beginning God created everything from nothing. No doubt there. But, these days we often hear something like "Why is that puppy so cute? Because God made it that way." Or something like "Who made that awesome sports car? God did."
I'm trying to reconcile the idea that God created all things (initially) vs. God creates all things (currently). I have no doubt that I couldn't build a car without God guiding me and nudging me in the right direction, but does that mean God created it?
I guess, to me, it seems like God made the building blocks -- ie dirt, water, atoms, physics, gravity, etc. -- but man actually made things using those building blocks.
It would be like saying the guy that invented the microchip is the same guy who invented the iphone.
I hope this question makes sense and someone can offer some clarity.
