God's plans

GOD'S ACCURACY How lovely to think about the way our Creator God plannedeverything socarefully and perfectly, everything with a plan. As Hishighest creation, we are fearfully and wonderfully made.' God's accuracy may be observed in the hatching of eggs.For example, the eggs of the potato bug hatch in 7 days; Those of the canary in 14 days; Those of the barnyard hen in 21 days.The eggs of ducks and geese hatch in 28 days;The eggs of the parrot and the ostrich hatch in 42 days. (Notice, they are all divisible by seven). God's wisdom is seen in the making of an elephant. Thefour legs of thisgreat beast all bend forward in the same direction. Noother Quadruped is somade. God planned that this animal would have a huge body,too large to liveon two legs. For this reason He gave it four fulcrums sothat it can risefrom the ground easily. The horse rises from the ground onits two frontlegs first. A cow rises from the ground with its two hindlegs first. How wise the Lord is in all His works of creation!God's wisdom is revealedin His arrangement of sections and segments, as well as inthe number of grains. Each watermelon has an even number of stripes on the rind. Each orange has an even number of segments. Each ear of corn has an even number of rows. Each stalk of wheat has an even number of grains. Every bunch of bananas has, on its lowest row, an even number of bananas,and each row decreases by one, so that one row has an evennumber and the next row an odd number.The waves of the sea roll in on shore twenty-six to theminute in all kinds of weather.All grains are found in even numbers on the stalks. The Lord specified thirty fold, sixty fold,and a hundredfold - all even numbers. God has caused the flowers to blossom at certain specifiedtimes during theday, so that Linneus, the great botanist, once said thatif he had aconservatory containing the right kind of soil, moistureand temperature,he could tell the time of day or night by the flowers thatwere open and those that were closed!Thus the Lord in His wonderful grace can arrange the lifethat is entrustedto His care in such a way that it will carry out Hispurposes and plans,and will be fragrant with His presence. Only theGod-planned life issuccessful. Only the life given over to the care of theLord is safe.
