The Miracle of Creation - Another clue given to us by our Creator Savior

             
               What important body part are babies born without?

Strangely enough, scientists tell us, babies are born without kneecaps.

In place of the bony kneecaps we adults have, babies are born with a tough piece of cartilage.

Why?  those who believe in our Creator God have the answer:

(1) The flexibility of the cartilage makes the birth process much easier for mother and child, and

(2) The softer, more pliable cartilage also makes it easier for the baby to learn to walk.

So God designed His human creatures to start out with no kneecaps.

Between the ages of 2 and 6 years, however, the cartilage slowly turns to bone and becomes the patella, or kneecaps that adults have.

So it was all part of His original Design from the very beginning.

You created my inmost being; 
You knit me together in my mother's womb.
 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
-- Psalm 119:14

Men go abroad to wonder at the height of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering.
                                             -- Saint Augustine

We need to stop and wonder...to marvel...at the way we were specially designed and created....
