GOD's amazing healing powers

i got a scratch on my hand about a week ago from something or other at work. last night i was looking at the faint mark that was still there, and it got me thinking. how amazing is it that skin heals? i mean, really. skin gets cut or burned and new skin grows in its place. a mark may remain for awhile, but in most cases any evidence of it having been there goes away. how can people say there's not a Great CREATOR? this is intelligent design at its finest. what a miracle. i was just left staring at that faint mark in awe (and with a thankful spirit).
so today at work, when walking past a counter that had a thing of saran wrap on it, my hand brushed against the teeth of the saran wrap thing, and in almost the exact same spot, i cut myself, this time drawing blood. i had to laugh. now i get to watch GOD's amazing healing powers all over again. :)

Aw, sorry it had to happen again! But way to look at the bright side. :) And it is pretty amazing. I think about that sometimes too. And in some of my school classes, like neuroscience -- um, yeah, that can NOT be an accident!

i remember teaching the kids about that in school. other cool things - the ability to feel pain, having a runny nose when you're sick, and the fact that bones can grow back together after they break

How exciting for you! (You know how when you bite your lip you seem to just keeping biting that same spot till in finally heals?)

oh yeah, and another cool thing was that because the saran wrap thing has those jagged edges, it started bleeding in little dots where the teeth hit, instead of just in a line. very cool to watch. :)
