God's Creation Is Greater Than We Think


Has anyone else experienced what we have?

Elements travel through wires and through the air all the time to allow for electronic devices to operate. Cell phones gather information from satellites from outer space. I am convinced that those "radio waves" or whatever they are, can go between humans and animals and human to human. My husband and I experience something every day along these lines. It is common for me to have a thought, without any discussion, my husband only a few minutes later will say it, when there has been no discussion of any kind on the subject beforehand.

Many things like this have happened to me, it came to mind one day that "wouldn't it be funny if I heard from my friend that I had not heard from in 20 years." Ten minutes later the phone rings and it is that person. I believe that we can sometimes catch in our minds that someone else is thinking about us. Not divination but simple brain waves going from one person or animal to another.

My father once told our dog to go find the cat, the dog walked down the road and a few minutes later right behind the dog was the cat following him. I am sure that the cat and dog "speak" differently, the cat by meows and the dog by growling and barks. How did the dog know what to say to the cat and why did the cat understand?

We also know that animals often know when storms or earthquakes are coming before humans do. They become agitated when something is wrong, even when no one can see it. They may feel a change in air pressure that alerts them of danger. I have also had dogs that were able to discern the character of a person, when normally the dogs loved everyone, there was one person they growled at and just didn't like.

I knew a dog once who was laying outside his young master’s room, he was not allowed to go inside. But one day the dog jumped on the bed and began licking the face of the boy, the boy had stopped breathing, the dog knew it and tried to revive him. The dog saved the boy’s life. How could that dog know that the boy had stopped breathing from 15 feet away while the boy lay in his bed? I believe animals sense things that we cannot see and I believe some humans have that ability to a very limited degree too.

God has given us a complicated system of damage control. Often we hear of people who sensed danger without any proof, then later it was proven that something terrible happened, the event didn't happen later, it was a matter of the event happening right at the time the person sensed danger. There was no divination just a physical sense of danger.

There is a difference between sensing danger or reading character and seeking to read the future or trusting evil spirits. What I speak about here is a natural built in ability that God has given us, some to a greater degree of than others.

There are those who can discern facial expressions, able to see if someone is lying or if someone is in trouble when no words have been spoken. Whenever we experience these things, we need to turn to God to show us the truth about what we are seeing.

It is never alright to seek spirits to find out the future or speak to the dead, which is not what I am talking about here.

Why does the body know to heal a wound? Why do we have panic responses when there is danger, even when we don't see anything? God made us in the beginning with many abilities that have been ruined or diminished by the curse in the fall.

Have you ever wondered why Eve was not frightened or alarmed when the serpent spoke to her? It must have been normal for the animals to communicate with humans, whatever form that took, it was clear that Eve was not surprised about the serpent speaking nor was she afraid that he did.

I am amazed at the intricacy of the human brain and the body’s' ability to heal itself often when there is no intervention on the part of humans. I had so many cuts and scrapes as a child, even often neglecting them in terms of ointments and sealing salves, but the body took care of them in the matter of a couple of days.

God created a perfect universe, after the fall it wasn't perfect any more, things we once used to be able to do, are not under the curse and greatly diminished, nonetheless still in operation to some degree.

I find it amazing that this computer works, how can the words type on the screen, how do they travel through the wires to everyone and anyone all over the world? Even the scientists who discovered this, really don't know exactly how it works, they only know that it does. The fact that they could discover these things I believe is an act of God. He controls every new invention, for his purposes. I don't believe man can create any new ideas, our brain was wired to only be able to think up that which is possible. God reveals in his timing what He wants us to know and when He wants us to develop it.

These thoughts ought to leave us in awe of God and His marvelous creation. We truly do have more unanswered questions than answered ones. This is why I am so excited about heaven, getting to see our Lord, able to ask Him everything I have been curious about, but could never understand myself.
