You are special


When you woke up this morning, did you realize how uniquely special you are.
Not only that you have a unique finger print, unique tongue print and a unique personality specially designed for God’s purpose, but that you are special in every way to God. He loves you more than you realize.

Here are a few things that make you special:

Genesis 1:27 - So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God He created them; male and female He created them.

Every human spent about half an hour as a single cell.

A baby acquires fingerprints at the age of three months.

Your teeth start growing 6 months before you are born.

The stomach’s digestive acids are strong enough to dissolve zinc. Fortunately for us, the cells in the stomach lining renew so quickly that the acids don’t have time to dissolve it. You get a new stomach lining every three to four days.

The lungs contain over 300,000 million capillaries (tiny blood vessels). If they were laid end to end, they would stretch 2400km (1500 miles).

 Human bone is as strong as granite in supporting weight. A block of bone the size of a matchbox can support 9 tonnes – that is four times as much as concrete can support.

The focusing muscles of the eyes move around 100,000 times a day. To give your leg muscles the same workout, you would need to walk 80km (50 miles) every day

In 30 minutes, the average body gives off enough heat (combined) to bring a half gallon of water to boil.

Nerve impulses to and from the brain travel as fast as 170 miles per hour (approx. 289 km an hour)

The human brain cell can hold 5 times as much information as the Encyclopaedia Britannica.

The human heart creates enough pressure to squirt blood 30 feet.

The human body is estimated to have 60,000 miles of blood vessels. 

The surface area of a human lung is equal to a tennis court.

Scientists have counted over 500 different liver functions. 

Your nose can remember 50,000 different scents.

Everyone has a unique smell, except for identical twins.

You use 200 muscles to take one step.

Three hundred million cells die in the human body every minute.

Every day an adult body produces 300 billion new cells.

So smile, because you are more that you think.


The truth about forgiveness

What is forgiveness? Oxford says it is the action or process of forgiving or being forgiven. But what is forgiveness actually? It is the rel...
