"Given enough time and faith stuff happens and an amoeba can evolve into a human being. Sure. :-)

I don't know about faith, but evidence suggests it took around 3 billion years for amoeba to evolve, then another billion for us.
That's a long time.

And if it still seems unlikely, then I'm certain God's will can make the seemingly impossible inevitable.

“evidence suggests it took around 3 billion years for amoeba to evolve, then another billion for us.”

What evidence?

God told us exactly how we evolved. He created us. Completely and wholly and not from some one celled amoeba (which is impossible regardless of time frame). There is no method by which genetic material would add to itself to create an elephant from this one celled amoeba.
Put another way, if we traveled to a distant planet and found on the surface a working computer, fully powered up and a working operating system complete with applications, would the first thing that would pop up in your mind is Look! all of the elements in this computer are found on this planet. They must have assembled themselves over billions of years to make this working computer. Because that's what you're proposing.
