State of the Planet

I have never seen the whole movie, but I like to watch some of the specials on the National Geographic channel. It always amazes me to see what God has create on this earth and the things that he can make happen. Everything works together so perfectly and to me, it is impossible for anyone to watch any of that footage and say that it all happened by chance. One of the most amazing things that I have seen on the National Geographic is when they show the ocean floor. You see the most amazing looking creatures that completely blow your mind. On one of the journeys down, the small submarine crew see this giant circle of clams and other crustaceans surrounding this black liquid like lake that seemed to be at least 50 yards wide, and the crew notices that this black stuff is a liquid that has completely separated itself from the sea water. The crew then decides that since the are in a submarine they should be able to dive into it. When they try they just ricochet off the surface, and the black liquid ripple from the impact. After the experience, they still have no idea what the stuff is and why it acts like a separate lake under the ocean.

One time I watched a special on the rain forest and its inhabitants. At one moment during the special, 2 separate chimpanzee tribes were about to war against each other over a land dispute, and the head monkey from the stronger tribe stood on a rock and held a staff while yelling and jumping and making lots of noise. He then pointed the staff at the enemy monkeys and his army charged toward them. I just sat there dumbfounded, looking at my TV screen, thinking, "How is this possible." The quick answer to that is God. He has made all things possible, and it is our job to marvel at his work. I is also our job to take care of His work, and not just the natural, but the spiritual. WE need to take care of ourselves, and make it a priority to keep our spirit one with God.
