Colossians 3:17 "He is before all things and in Him all things hold together."
Have you ever thought about the way our bodies work? I mean have you ever just sat and thought about the intricacies of the human body? We are amazing creatures!! When the Psalmist says in 139:14 that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made", seriously he is not kidding.
Did you know:
- In one molecule of your DNA there is enough information to fill a million page encyclopedia.
- There are about 30,000,000,000 (billion) working sections in the brain. It's able to coordinate with 3,000,000,000,000 (trillion) nerve cells.
- Your ears have about 24,000 hair like cells in your inner ear, which react to sound and convert the sound to nerve impulses so you can hear.
- Our lungs contain about 600,000,000 tiny air sacks, about 750 woven miles of blood vessels. If flattened out, our lungs would cover about 1,000 square feet. As a result, you will inhale and exhale about 23,000 times today.
- The heart pumps on average about 100,000 times a day. It pumps about 2,000 gallons of blood through your body every day and that blood travels endlessly through 60,000 miles of blood vessels, and it makes that trip in less than a minute.
- Our kidney's have about 40 miles of tubing and can clean 500 gallons of blood every day.
- There is about 46.5 miles of nerves that run through your body, and nerve impulses can travel at about 270 feet per second.
- Your skin will replace itself about 1,000 times in your life.

Oh yes, we are fearfully and wonderfully made. God knows you.He.KNOWS.you. Let that sink in a minute. We cannot hide anything from God, why we try I don't know, but we can't. He already knows. He knows your going to hide it too. Now think about that a minute.
God created your inmost body, He knit you together in your mother's womb, He KNOWS you.
Psalm 139:14-16 (The Message) "Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out; You formed me in my mother's womb.
I thank You, High God - You're breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration - what a creation!
You know me inside and out, You know every bone in my body;
You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something.
Like an open book, You watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before You.
The days of my life all prepared before I'd even lived one day."
He knows dear one; He knows.
