Healing

Today I am amazed by the body’s ability to heal and regenerate. For instance, last weekend I ran a marathon, and I could hardly walk on Saturday and Sunday. Monday I was feeling a little better, by Tuesday I wasn’t limping anymore. Today, Friday, I have already gone on a slow jog and basically feel better than I did even before the marathon. Isn’t it amazing how quickly my body can heal itself?

Another thing that has struck me about our bodies lately is the phenomenon of pregnancy. I am in my late 20s, so almost everyone I know has kids, is pregnant, or wants to have kids. I have seen a few of my friends in the final stages of pregnancy in the past few days, and I must admit, it still strikes me as odd that we can just grow a baby inside of us. We have a very creative Creator! I mean, if I had been creating the world, things would have been pretty boring. Not God, though, he keeps things interesting from the creation of the universe to the tiniest atoms, and we ourselves are by no means an exception! Maybe I will explore this more later, but the links above are some previous thoughts on this…
