Where does it all come from??

Just for the record....I am a very bad blogger.

I saw this article on Foxnews. I'll save you the trouble of reading it and summarize. A British scientist proposes a theory about how DNA evolved from much simpler RNA. Thus "proving" another piece of the puzzle of how life evolved.

I have been studying biology/medicine for quite a while now. 4 years of college (BS in Animal Biology), 4 years of Medical School, 5 years of training (Internal Medicine and Oncology). The one thing that becomes more and more striking to me is how little we understand about the human body and life itself. I cannot explain why some people get cancer and others do not. I cannot explain why some people respond very well to the treatment that we offer and others do not. I can explain things that will increase the risk, but none of it is certain. Everyone knows people that have smoked 3 packs a day for 60 years and never get lung cancer.
We are not even close to understanding the complexity of the human eye.
How did birds get a 5 chambered heart while humans only get 4 chambers?
Why do some men go bald, and some go gray (some get both)?
Why can I see through a jellyfish?
The list of questions only goes on and on and on....

As the scientific community has advanced in knowledge they seem to turn farther and farther away from the obvious. They come up with more theories. They will accept anything that discounts the possibility of the one obvious explanation for all of it. Scientists would have us believe that it makes perfect sense. It just happened over time. It took billions of years, but it evolved. Somehow, someway something came out of nothing. Life developed where there was none. From a chemical soup 1 cell developed and over billions of years that 1 cell turned into the insects, birds, trees, elephants, and babies. Oh yeah, and those babies develop when a very small part of a man and very small part of a woman are joined together. They figured out how to grow for 9 months inside the woman until it can survive on this planet. Then it discovered how to exit from the womb. Yup, just like that. Over billions of years a small 6-8 pound helpless baby somehow learned on it's own that it can grow up into a 150 pound adult. One that can walk, talk, spell, jump, eat, urinate, see the world, and remember what happened 3 years ago. That adult can go on to do it all over again. Make another little baby. It just happened over time.

Are you kidding me??? How does that make any sense at all. The most educated people in our world accept this as truth because it seems better to them than the alternative.

I know that it is only the power of the Holy Spirit that allows me to see the truth, but it seems so obvious. We are only here because of divine design. How much easier is it to admit that God did it all. Simple. Straightforward. No leaps of time. No life-forming transformations. No cosmic soup. God just did it. It is obvious that he exists because I am not the same as poison ivy. He is real because my lungs knew to become lungs and my toes became toes. God understood that I would not breath nearly as well if my lungs were made out of toenails. He created my body to fight infections. If get a cold, my body develops a fever to fight that cold. He did it. He is real. He is God. He is. He is all.

I am so thankful today for the God that is powerful enough to create things that I can not even begin to understand. I will gladly serve that God with all my remaining breaths. When he sees fit to let me have my last one, I'll spend eternity with Him. Maybe it's just me, but that's a better deal than "It just kind of happened over a REALLY long time"
