GOD’S WORD FOR AUGUST 17
GOD’S WORD FOR AUGUST 17 ~ ~ Genesis 1:31~ ~ “And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
The gecko can casually walk up walls and across ceilings as easil as we walk on floors. This is because it has tiny hairs, called setae, on its feet. These hairs are so tiny that they actually grip the molecules in the surface of the material upon which the gecko is walking.
Human attempts to duplicate the gecko’s ability show the excellence of the gecko’s design. Scientists recently made a one-square-centimeter patch out of water-resistant plastic that had over a million tiny setae on it. As impressive as that sounds, their gecko tape was only one-third as efficient as the gecko’s foot. But it is efficient enough that a glove made out of gecko tape could hold a man to the ceiling. However, man-made gecko tape only works about five times before it refuses to stick. That’s because the plastic from which gecko tape is made attracts water. Every time it is applied it picks up a little water from even apparently dry surfaces. This causes its setae to clump together and lose their ability to grip a surface. The gecko’s setae repel water so well that they work even on an obviously wet surface.
We should not be surprised that even 21st century science cannot duplicate the wonders created by God. The determined atheistic “scientists” need to leave their humanistic religion at the door when they study the living world. They will never prove God wrong. He will not be mocked!
“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reaps.”
Live in the Light of Our Lord
