• God’s beautiful creation

  I’m starting to realize how different God makes every single one of us.

  To some, this may seem like a bold statement, but bear with me.
  The more and more I dig deeper, the more and more I realize… evolution didn’t create this beautiful collaboration of beautiful people. I look at how we exist and what makes us work. We have our unique brains, sizes, color, qualities, smiles, personalities; we have our organs all in the perfect places made with an insane network of cells which are regulated by tons of enzymes which are also regulated by lots of processes. Everything in our body is determined by our DNA which contains tons of information which can be passed down and interchanged throughout generations to make all different kinds of people! And even as we dig deeper and deeper into the tiny little things that make us into who we are, we can’t figure out where it all started!

  Even if we attribute it to one single cell, where did that cell come from? How did it turn into us and 50 other millions things on this planet?

  How can a scientist, after studying all of this, not wonder if there was divine creation?
  There is nothing more complicated than the human system .

  With that said, I’m going to talk about how interesting it is that God makes us all different. There are people who are good at different things and bad at others, but somehow, you find someone or know that there is someone on this planet that are good at what you are not good at and bad at what you are good at. You wonder why people laugh at the jokes that you think are retarded and why people don’t laugh at the ones that you think are hilarious. You wonder why people resort to violence and hatred while you are a pacifist. But you also realize that you’re a pacifist who secretly hates and lies for your own image. You start to realize that some people have stronger faults that others can visibly see and others have an equal weakness in areas that are often missed and unreadable. You wonder why you’re so passionate about the lives of the homeless people and the status of the church while your friend next to you wonders why your passion is too strong in those areas and not in the areas of fellowship and bonding. You look around and search for people with your same passions, but you can’t really find them because they’re off doing the same things that you’re doing, searching and not waiting. It seems like others around you have found people that are equally passionate in their areas because for some reason, more people are passionate about X and Y instead of Z. You start to realize though, that everyone has a different reason that they were made and that God, in His Perfect plan, has made you for a reason, whether big or small, to further the Kingdom of God. That you are like the human system, working together for one purpose, to keep the body alive. Some people act as enzymes, some as tiny cells, others as organs, some as mitochondria, some do the energy building, some provide the microtubules for communication, some are the red blood cells. They work together to make the body survive. This body, is the body of Christ.

  Like the cells and enzymes at work to keep our body strong, we work to keep Christ strong. We’re a body of believers, all called for a different purpose with different backgrounds and different passions. Sometimes, the body clashes and some cells within the body will never understand the other, but as they go on & do the work that they were made to do in the body, the body survives and stays strong.

  Just like how we will never understand the human body, I will never truly understand how we all work together to glorify God’s Kingdom since we are such a vast network of believers created with a different purpose to come together perfectly for God. But I will say, after just a piece of this unfathomable realization, “What an amazing God!”

  It’s perfectly planned. It’s so perfectly planned that we will never understand, but it comes together beautifully .
  You and you and you and you are all beautiful. You’re all important.
