Chad, I see your point to a certain degree, but I also think that apart from the initial grace of God, it really isn't possible for someone to "see" God's presence in anything. Conversely, with that grace, the believer has eyes to see.
Even stating it like that will appear as foolishness to those who cannot hear.
