Look deep down inside your human body. And I mean right down to the proteins, amino acids, and every cell. You’ll need a very good microscope. But you’ll discover you are awesome. And you’ll see how it’s all on purpose. All that complexity could never have happened by accident.
Have you ever thought about just how on purpose YOU are?
I don’t mean mankind. I mean YOU. Let’s leave the whole world out of the question for a moment. Just take a minute and think about how you got here.
You probably know, or have some understanding of, how you got 23 chromosomes from your mom and 23 chromosomes from your dad. Right? And, so, you know how those all mixed together to make up the singularly unique combination that is you. Right?
And maybe you’ve thought about how that process goes back to their parents…and their parents’ parents…and so on. Right? Maybe you’ve even thought about the process of forming in the womb and childbirth. Do you see how you’re not just accidental proteins, carbs, and fats?
You are awesome because you’re not an accident.
Here’s why I say “on purpose.” Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids. But did you know amino acids can’t link together to form proteins if oxygen is present. And oxygen was present when the first forms of life were supposed to have evolved (as I’ve mentioned before). That means that proteins couldn’t have occurred from random chemical reactions. And scientists have discovered oxygen in rocks that were supposedly here before any of the earliest fossils. So much for the ideal random circumstances to form even the basic building blocks of life.
But wait, there’s more…
To form proteins amino acids need to be “highly concentrated in extremely pure liquid.” And if the earth was a molten mass of liquids, solids, and gases when life was beginning, how pure would that be? Answer: Not very. And there’s more, but I suggest you follow one of the links you see on this page. And read about it from a brilliant scientist, engineer, Ph.D from M.I.T., and former atheist.
Plus, consider reading Paul’s letters in the New Testament of the Bible. Because his letters talk about this dispensation of grace we’re in currently. And I encourage you to discover the power of God’s love there. Because I think you’ll see how much God loves you and how he created you on purpose because of that love.
Yeah, don’t just take my word for it, for cryin’ out loud. Because I’m just a rhyme and reason knucklehead.
Here’s how I put it…
You’re here on purpose.
You were designed.
The living God
Had you in mind
When you were formed…
And given breath.
You can live on
After your death.
But you must choose
While you’re still here.
Don’t live in doubt.
Don’t live in fear.
Give up the world
And keep your soul.
You’re here on purpose
