Signs that he will always hold us together!





So we all have those things that just seem to blow our minds and i just found one! Its what is called the Laminin Cell, a cell adhesion molecule. It sounds pretty complicated and it most definately is to me. But what it does is simply EVERYTHING!! It holds our whole body together, holds our skin on, allows us to simply function. I saw a picture of this beautiful creation and it just about made me fall out of my seat. God promises to hold us together no matter what and the band "Fee" puts his promise best with the lyrics, "When everything falls apart your arms hold me together when everything falls apart your the only hope for this heart". Hearing these lyrics and seeing a picture of the Laminin molecule it all came full circle. He truly will hold us together no matter what, his unfailing love is just that unfailing! Psalms 62:6 "He only is my rock, my salvation, my fortress" God will not let you down and he certainly didnt when he created you in his image (Genesis 1:27). It is only fitting that this molecule that simply holds us all together is in the shape of the cross that our Lord and Savior died on for us.






This is a actual microscopic picture of a Laminin molecule!













But, i know many people have had the same questions as me before: How do you know God is real?, What signs are there of a God? Well over the past months i have been shown many signs and they have left me speechless. It's almost hard to grasp that the God of the entire universe loves me enough to create me perfectly, let alone send his son to die for me because i am a sinner. It's hard to grasp, but just sit back and see all the amazing wonders in the world that have no explanation but, God.

Hope


Have you ever looked in the mirror and realized that you aren't becoming who you intended to be? Imagine putting that mirror in front of the United States (what do you think would be shown); what about the world? Have we become what God intended us to be? Are we following Gods law over the law of man? To be honest, that question is quite easy to answer and it is no.


With wars seemingly happening everywhere, famines in too many countries, young woman being sold in human trafficking, children dying of starvation every day, $97 billion used for pornography every year, the list can go on and on but what i concluded is that I'm sure God didn't quite have this in his plan for us. But why dont we take the world by storm and change things? We all have a secret ambition to be a rebel; well why dont we rebel against lust, greed, hatred, etc and show the world what Jesus Christ can bring them: HOPE!


Jesus Christ is the only man in history who can restore lives, who provides forgiveness for our sins, who loves unconditionally, who will never leave or forsake us, and who is the way, the truth, and the life. He gave his life so that we may gain ours. The cross is more than just a religious symbol most see it as, it is much more than that; it is a showing of Gods unconditional love that he would send his only son to die for us, so that we may experience a new life free of bondage and pain.


Have you become enslaved to this worlds illusions that it can bring you happiness? Are you searching for hope and a meaning for your life? Well its best said in Fee's song "Everything Falls", "When everything falls apart your arms hold me together, when everything falls apart your the only hope for this heart, when everything falls apart and my strength is gone i find you mighty and strong". Jesus Christ wants to hold you together, he wants you just as you are, come to him and let him set you free and let his peace come over your life. Email me if you have any questions because your life is meaningful and God wants to offer you what the world cant:Freedom!


Lets make a change in all our lives; imagine if we all started loving like Christ. So i challenge you to take the blinders off from over your eyes that the world has put on and see that world for what it truly is; a large round dust ball filled with Billions of hurting people. Lets take it one step at a time and make a difference in this world by being those rebels who love unconditionally!

Today i was sitting in class and being the wonderful student i am; i was surfing the internet and came across many world hunger videos that just broke my heart. Many of us have come across these many times before in our lifetime but think nothing of them other than ," thats sad wish we could stop that" ; well to many it seems like a lofty irreversible challenge but what if it wasn't such a challenge would we actually do something about it? According to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization(FAO) it would take $30 Billion a year to launch agricultural programs to completely solve the world hunger puzzle that many cant seem to put together. Although that grand sum of money seems to be alot put it into Wall Street terms, we as Americans bailed out Wall Street for 23 times that amount.


Many may say well where would we get this money from since we as a nation are already broke? Well great question, but; EcoSalon did some digging on what we spend our money on and how much we infact do spend and the findings were astonishing.$1 trillion a year is spent on military expenditures globally and roughly $540 billion is from the US alone, $23.4 Billion goes to The United States Department of Energy to develop and maintain nuclear warheads, but its not all Americas fault; the United Kingdoms wastes $31.7 billion US dollars worth of food every year. Can we stop world hunger if globally we all got on board? I think it is certainly attainable.


Put aside religion, race, nationality, status, etc and see people for who they really are HUMAN!! We all have one thing in common and that is we are all in this world together and people need our help. Will we rises to the call? Lets be a generation that brings change!
