Just sharing my own personal writing:

The Handwriting of God

DNA is the language of life, and God is the writer.

Sometime in early January of 1954, God decided to create a [LTC.ret] -— me.

He spread out the DNA from both of my parents, and set about choosing which specific base pairs would form my own distinct code for my one of a kind life. Although the core DNA of an average human body is pretty consistent, there is ample opportunity for individual characteristics in the three billion base pairs, divided onto the 23 pairs of chromosomes, that make up the normal genes of human DNA.

But God, being God, is not limited to what is spread out before Him. He can always choose to substitute one base pair for another, or create a whole new sequence, to write a single unique trait or a whole uniquely different individual -— we call those mutations.

Every A & T, every C & G, were lined up exactly as God wanted. He picked them and put them in place just for me. And then He gently breathed His breath of life into me, and began my journey to discover my fearfully and wonderfully made self, and to enjoy the life He has given me.

My life has been a glorious unfolding revelation of what God had in store for me that many years ago. He has laughed at my foolishness, cried at my failings, and rejoiced at my accomplishments. He is my watchful and ever loving Father, and I owe everything I am and everything I have to Him.

That's very beautiful and uplifting!

For You formed my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works, and I know this very well. (Psalm 139:13,14)

It's sad that some came here only to mock instead of being encouraged and drawn to the Creator of all things. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
