The human body is really fascinating and everytime I think of it I see God's greatness in a way I cannot even explain.I just get emotional-through the functioning of the human body I realize I am loved and my existence could never be accidental and a result of a bing bang.
What fascinates me about the human body is the fact that is operated through feedback systems :negative and positive.These are systems that maintain haemostasis in the body.In simpler terms it just makes sure that everything is within its normal range so that harm is not done.
Just to make an example:If your blood sugar level is too high this will be detected and your blood sugar levels will be lowered,and vice versa so that it's in equilibrium within the normal blood sugar level range:3.9-6.1mmol/L or 70-110mg/dL.Same goes for your temperature etc.This is within the internal system.
This is also so for the external environment.For example,when the skin is wounded,the are certain phases that occur to revert the skin back to its normal function and structure.These phases include:Blood Clotting(haemostasis),inflamation,proliferation and remodelling and by the end the wound is only a paler scar.
This is what God seeks to do in each person's life.He wants to restore His perfect image in us.The one we were created with (Genesis 1:26).When sin entered it not only ruined/deformed the image of God in mankind but it also seperated mankind from God,hence Adam and Eve hid themselves.But like a body is restored to its normal functioning,God does the same for mankind.
God gave up His Son,Jesus,to die for us so that through his death and victories we may be able overcome to sin and return back to our sinless state.But in this case,mankind must CHOOSE whether he wants to be restored to His initial state and it is ONLY through Jesus's death that mankind can be restored.Acceptance of this gift means the person receives the gift of eternal life.
Then the holy Spirit is like the feedbacks which bring the body to haemostasis.He brings about repentance and acceptance of this offer.After the offer has been accepted,He helps the individual to return to his sinless state by teaching him what God's will is,convicting him of his sin and constantly leading the individual to new truths.This is that the individual may finally reach God's ideal and have eternal life.
Indeed,nature testifies of God's love!
