How does God perserve the creation?

The answer

God instituted natural laws to preserve creation. The Psalmist says, “O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all … These all wait for You, that You may give them their food in due season. What you give them they gather in; you open Your hand, they are filled with good.” (Ps. 104:24–28). It is true that some plants, animals, and birds become extinct; but the faithful live with God forever.
