Job 1:21
Nature – Creation – Animals
Creation, Animals, Natural World, Science
A case to reshape the periodic table of elements
My Pondering
Just further proof of evolutionary randomness at work NOT.
A brilliant design requires a most brilliant Designer. And then posses all the power to create all that in our world from nothing.
And if that weren’t enough, this Creator loves and knows you, yes YOU.
It is an ironic habit of human…
The Right to Life
My Pondering
Its confounding that when a little child goes missing, many people go searching. Amber alerts are issued. Police and volunteers search the area, as they should.
Yet when a child is aborted, no big search party.
If the same child is gravely ill, the finest doctors and nurses give extensive therapy, medicine and treatments to cure and ease the child’s condition. Sometimes fundraising is required. Many prayers are launched. People are sad as they should.
Yet when a child is aborted, no big operation.
If they same child was injured in a terrible accident, same thing as it should for life is precious.
Yet when a child is aborted, no big deal.
BUT if the same child is not yet born though it’s heart is beating, it’s brain feels pain, it’s DNA and stem cells are present, it’s God given soul is intrinsic…then how in world is this any different?
Just because the pre-born baby human child (aka fetus) is hidden within its mother’s womb doesn’t make him/her disposable.
Legal doesn’t make it right. It makes it worse.
Some pro-death women often snarl, “You are a man and do NOT have a right to tell me what I can do with MY body.”
That’s true however your rights end at the tip of another person’s nose, including your baby. That fetus has different DNA therefore it’s not part of your person. The fetus is not another body part like an appendix that needs removed or a cancerous tumor that needs eradicated.
It’s illegal and immoral to rape another person’s living body.
It’s illegal and immoral to violently assault another living person’s body.
It’s illegal and immoral to harvest organs another person’s living body.
It’s illegal and immoral to abuse another person’s living body.
The same principle applies to the pre-born, the most innocent and helpless of all. It has been said that how a society treats it’s most helpless is an indicator of how enlightened it truly is.
Some pro-death people shout, “What about rape?”.
Rape is illegal and wrong!
Do two wrongs make a right?
No.
Other pro-death folk say, “My doctor has determined my pre-born baby has an abnormality. Or it the wrong sex. Or whatever therefore let’s terminate the pregnancy and kill the fetus”
If the mother’s life is legitimately in jeopardy and verified by multiple medical professionals, then it should absolutely be the mother’s decision. Otherwise, we are usurping God’s (nature for non-believers) role in life.

Conclusion
Life is precious. All life is precious. Life begins with the blood. If a fetus has a heartbeat there is life. Life deserves a chance. All lives, born and pre-born.
Abortion kills 100% of the time.

The difference between 1st, 2nd and 3rd…just a nose
Sometimes the little things are minutia and sometimes they are the difference between 1st place and 3rd place.

Amazing creation by an amazing Creator!
When sperm whales need a nap, they take a deep breath, dive down about 45 feet and arrange themselves into perfectly-level, vertical patterns. They sleep sound and still for up to two hours at a time between breaths, in pods of 5 or 6 whales, presumably for protection. No one knew whales slept vertically until a 2008 study documented the behavior. And no one captured really good photography of it in the wild until 2017. Patrick Dykstra was documenting sperm whales in the Mediterranean for his book on the creatures when he came across these sleeping whales… 🐋💙

One sun, one Son
The (6) sixth day, the day of man
“Then 1) God said, “Let Us (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) 2) make man in Our image, according to Our likeness [not physical, but a spiritual personality and moral likeness]; and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the cattle, and over the entire earth, and over everything that creeps and crawls on the earth.” So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them.
Genesis 1:26-31 AMP
3) And God blessed them [granting them certain authority] and said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth, and subjugate it [putting it under your power]; and rule over (dominate) the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
So God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of the entire earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; and to all the animals on the earth and to every bird of the air and to everything that moves on the ground—to everything in which there is the breath of life— 4) I have given every green plant for food”; and it was so [because He commanded it].
God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good and He validated it completely. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.”
My Pondering
Its easy to take passages in the Bible for granted and gloss over them. Genesis by it very name is the foundation. If we get it wrong, everything else is askew. And therefore, if we get it right, understand and are empowered by its basic truths we have the framework for a proper worldview for our personal life.
First, we see the Godhead, the amazing Trinity, in action. We should notice and use our own trinities in God’s creation. Read more here, here and here.
Next, we were created in God’s image. Not from some accidental, big bang slime-ball that evolved over endless years but by God Himself; His best creation made alive by His very breath which was created within each human as soul & spirit that was designed to connect and be filled to His Spirit for relationship. Our identity should first and foremost with God, as should be our primary purpose; to connect with God and give Him glory and return and share love. Yes, we were made in His image, male & female; distinct yet equal children of God.
Third, we were blessed to be abundant. To be fruitful and multiply. This wasn’t just for procreation but also for pro-creation; to make the most of all our God given resources. To return a healthy ROI of goodness using our faculties of imagination, creativity, mindset, purpose as we live, love and move with God’s blessing and will. We were made to rule, dominate and create under God’s authority for goodness sake.
Fourth, we read that God originally created us to eat plants and seeds.
Finally, God stamped this segment of His creation and stated it was just good but very good.
