Routinely we see ads, pictures, houses, while programs/subdivisions, whatever with the subscript “Designed by________”....

As I did my daily walk, I was drawn by the variety of leaf shapes and sizes...hundreds...from pin sized ground covering leaves to the plate sized maple...some fuzzy, others glass smooth...round, oval, snowflake shapes...all come back the same way from the same plant...

All this in a hundred yards of space...this doesn’t count the thousands around the globe...each fitting the season, the geography of the place they live...alpine meadows have much different plants than tropical or desert...

And they were all designed by God...

When I think how much creativity He put into plants, how much more he cared and created humans...”in our image”... we are indeed special to Him...thank YOU...

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground. ” Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food. ” And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning —the sixth day.

Genesis 1:26-31 

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand — when I awake, I am still with you.

Psalm 139:13-18
