The Wonder Of Creation
God is the God of the molecule and the atom and the smallest element, just as He is the God of the macrocosm above us.
Once a fellow had me look into a high-powered microscope at a piece of paper covered with red paint. Under the microscope, the solid red color on the paper looked like blobs. It was a blob there and then a space, and a blob over there and a space, and a blob over there. Then he took the wing of a butterfly and placed it under the microscope, and I looked at that. The beauty of the color and the arrangement of that wing of a butterfly was an astonishing thing to see. And I thought, with a deep, moving response, "Think of the pattern of the glory of God, to expend such infinite pains upon the smallest wing of a little creature. Think of that!"
And do you mean to tell me that that same Lord God who painstakingly arranges forty-two million of those brilliantly tinted scales to the square inch, the same Lord God doesn’t mark the atoms and the molecules in my ashes? My body changes all the time; every seven years I have an altogether new physical frame. But there is something that is me, and God knows what that something is. And even though it falls into the dust of the ground and dies, God marks those little molecules and those little ashes, and God cares for that dust; and in God’s time, we shall be raised from the dead; we shall live again. You will be you, and I shall be I.
