In talking about taking things for granted in my last random thought, I started to think more about other things I take for granted and how greatful I really am for certain things. For example, when was the last time you thought about breathing? Its probably been awhile. How do lungs work? Who designed them that way? I'm encouraged by the fact that some very intelligent scientists have been able to replicate a lung cell with silicon. I don't think we need to go and re-invent the body, but its encouraging that people are trying to understand how things work.
How about the last time you checked your water bill? How many 1000s of gallons did you use? 10? 15? 20? How much water is that? How many gallons of water are there in the world? How does it get replenished? How much snow, when melted, equals 10k gallons of water? How many households are there in the US that could be using 10k gallons of water? 1 million households? That's 10 billion gallons of water!! That's just 1 country!! Kinda makes you stand back and say WHOA!! How many of you will read this and then think about the things you don't normally think about?
I wonder...
When I think about all those things, I get overwhelmed and frazzled. I do believe it's evidence that there is a God, one who not only creates, but keeps it all organized...and contrary to his personal belief that would not be your earthly father...heheeh
