God's Accuracy
Posted By

God's accuracy may be observed in the hatching of eggs.
For example:
-the eggs of the potato bug hatch in 7 days; -those of the canary in 14
days;
-those of the barnyard hen in 21 days;
-The eggs of ducks and
geese hatch in 28 days; -those of the mallard in 35 days;
-The eggs of
the parrot and the ostrich hatch in 42 days.
(Notice, they are all divisible by 7, the number of days in a
week!)
The lives of each of you may be ordered by the Lord in a beautiful way
for His glory, if you will only entrust Him with your life. If you try
to regulate your own life, it will only be a mess and a failure. Only
the One Who made the brain and the heart can successfully guide them to
a profitable end.
God's wisdom is seen in the making of an elephant. The four legs of
this great beast all bend forward in the same direction. No other
quadruped is so made. God planned that this animal would have a huge
body, too large to live on two legs. For this reason He gave it four
fulcrums so that it can rise from the ground easily.
The horse rises from the ground on its two front legs first. A cow
rises from the ground with its two hind legs first. How wise the Lord
is in all His works of creation!
God's wisdom is revealed in His arrangement of sections and segments,
as well as in the number of grains.
-Each watermelon has an even number of strips on the rind.
-Each orange has an even number of segments.
-Each ear of corn has an even number of rows.
-Each stalk of wheat has an even number of grains.
-Every bunch of bananas has on its lowest row an even number of bananas,
and each row decreases by one, so that one row has an even number and
the next row an odd number.
-The waves of the sea roll in on shore twenty-six to the minute in all
kinds of weather.
All grains are found in even numbers on the stalks, and the Lord
specified thirty fold, sixty fold, and a hundredfold - all even
numbers.
God has caused the flowers to blossom at certain specified times during
the day, so that Linnaeus, the great botanist, once said that if he had
a conservatory containing the right kind of soil, moisture and
temperature, he could tell the time of day or night by the flowers that
were open and those that were closed!
Thus the Lord in His wonderful grace can arrange the life that is
entrusted to His care in such a way that it will carry out His purposes
and plans, and will be fragrant with His presence.
Only the God-planned safe life is successful. Only the life given over
to the care of the Lord is fulfilled.

I'm Still Living
Life has been very busy around our house. So I thought I'd drop a note. I'm teaching full time at the Christian School and still leading Master's Club on Weds. nights. Were getting ready to do some major changes in our children's ministry. I'm very excited about it. I did coach our girls volleyball team for a while but I had to give that up. It became too much. The kids are doing great. I can hardly believe I don't have any preschoolers anymore. In 2 years I'll have one graduating. It just don't seem possible.
I think this will be my last year teaching at the school. I may sub but teaching fulltime is proving to be a little to hard on the old body. Maybe when the kids are older I'll give it another shot but right now with dh going to school and working fulltime, and with what I'm doing it's getting pretty crazy around here. Though it has been helpful with my oldest boy getting his license. I just wish we had a car for him to drive. Oh well someday.
The 2 oldest boys both got speaking parts in the Christmas play, so we've been busy with that also. It's hard to believe its almost Christmas again. I'm so not ready for it. Usually I'm almost done with everything but this year I've barely begun. I don't even have the tree up yet. LOL I wish life would slow down a little so I could catch up.
Wishing you all a MERRY CHRISTMAS! |
