The mystery of His power comes into view when we wonder why He does not exercise His power the way most of us would prefer, a point best illustrated by our confrontation of the question of evil and suffering. But in accordance with His wisdom, He exercises His power through seeming weakness. The weakness of the Cross, though, ultimately gives way to the Resurrection and Exaltation of the Son. Who Is Creator Read 279-292 C reation is all that is other than God, for God is the Creator of all that is seen and unseen. Unlike materialists, who acknowledge only what they can see and touch, Christians acknowledge that the expanse of God's creation includes both heaven and earth, both material and spiritual reality.
Man bridges the gap between matter and spirit by sharing in both worlds.
Thus he has the task of standing in the image of God. Man is therefore concerned about both his origin and his end. These two aspects must be seen in relation to one another, for they are essential to the question of life's ultimate meaning. Man has been given both reason and revelation to explore these questions. As the Catechism states, the Creator can be known with certainty by His works, through the light of reason.
