Be At It Too

Imagine you’re on a sailboat in the middle of the ocean, but you have no rudder to steer. Without it, you’re completely at the mercy of the wind and waves. You can’t control where you’re going, and no matter how hard you try, the wind pushes you wherever it wants. The waves toss you around, and you can’t keep the boat on course. It’s like trying to walk a straight line on a slippery slope—you just keep sliding off track.

As the wind and waves get stronger, your boat might start turning sideways to the waves, making it even harder to stay upright. You feel the boat tipping dangerously, and you realize that without control, you’re at risk of capsizing. The fear of drifting into dangerous waters or getting swept far out to sea grows stronger. It’s a lot like life without direction. Without a clear sense of purpose or guidance, you can easily be swept away by whatever comes your way, losing sight of where you want to go. Having control is essential, whether you’re navigating a sailboat or steering your life.

You Are God’s Special Child

First let us count what the Intelligent Being as many called God has installed in your body.

The human body is made up of approximately 37.2 trillion cells.

An adult human has 206 bones. However, at birth, the body has about 270 bones, many of which fuse together as we age.

The total length of nerves in the human body is about 45 miles (72 kilometers). The sciatic nerve is the longest, stretching from the lower back down to the feet.

If you were to stretch out all the blood vessels in the human body, they would cover approximately 60,000 miles (100,000 kilometers).

The skin, the largest organ, covers an area of about 22 square feet (2 square meters) in an average adult.

The human body contains over 600 muscles. The smallest is the stapedius muscle in the ear, and the largest is the gluteus maximus (the buttock muscle).

The average human heart beats about 100,000 times per day, pumping roughly 2,000 gallons (7,570 liters) of blood daily.

The entire digestive system, from mouth to anus, is around 30 feet (9 meters) long.

The human brain weighs approximately 3 pounds (1.4 kilograms) and contains about 86 billion neurons.

On average, human hair grows about half an inch (1.25 cm) per month.

The average person blinks about 15-20 times per minute, which totals approximately 28,800 blinks per day.

Adults typically have 32 teeth, including wisdom teeth.

The human body produces around 2 million red blood cells every second.

The human nose can detect about 1 trillion different scents.

If all the DNA in your body’s cells were stretched out end to end, it would span approximately 67 billion miles (108 billion kilometers)—enough to reach from Earth to Pluto and back more than 10 times.

The average human tongue has about 2,000 to 8,000 taste buds, each containing 50-100 taste receptor cells.

The human body is composed of approximately 60% water. The brain and heart are around 73% water, and the lungs are about 83% water.

The human body has between 2 million to 4 million sweat glands. The highest concentration is on the soles of the feet, palms, forehead, and armpits.

Fingernails grow about 3.5 millimeters per month, while toenails grow at roughly half that rate.

The average adult has about 1.2 to 1.5 gallons (4.5 to 5.5 liters) of blood circulating through their body.

The average normal body temperature is about 98.6°F (37°C), but it can vary slightly from person to person.

The human body has around 360 joints, though the exact number can vary depending on how one defines a “joint.”

Human bones are about 5 times stronger than steel of the same density. However, they are also much lighter and more flexible.

The average human scalp has about 100,000 to 150,000 hair follicles. People with blonde hair typically have more hair follicles than those with dark hair.

Each blink lasts about 1/10th of a second, and the average person blinks around 15-20 times per minute.

The human skin completely renews itself about every 27 days. This means that in a year, you will shed around 9 pounds (4 kilograms) of dead skin cells.

The liver is the largest internal organ, weighing around 3.5 pounds (1.6 kilograms). It performs over 500 vital functions, including detoxification and protein synthesis.

The stapes, a bone in the middle ear, is the smallest bone in the human body, measuring about 3 millimeters in length.

The heart is powerful enough to squirt blood up to 30 feet (9 meters) in the air when it’s pumping at full force.

The human brain’s memory capacity is believed to be around 2.5 petabytes, or a million gigabytes, which is roughly equivalent to 3 million hours of TV shows.

The human brain has about 86 billion neurons, each connected to thousands of other neurons, creating a vast and complex network.

Red blood cells have a lifespan of about 120 days, after which they are broken down and recycled by the body.

The human body has about 500 to 700 lymph nodes, which are crucial for filtering harmful substances and fighting infections.

The gluteus maximus, located in the buttocks, is the largest muscle in the human body.

The orbicularis oculi, the muscle around the eye, is the fastest muscle in the body, allowing you to blink in an instant.

Despite accounting for only about 2% of body weight, the brain uses approximately 20% of the body’s total energy.

The small intestine is about 20 feet (6 meters) long, while the large intestine is about 5 feet (1.5 meters) long.

The human body has more than 30 muscles in each hand that allow for complex movements and dexterity.

The body produces 1 to 2 grams of earwax per month, which helps protect and clean the ear canal.

What do you think of yourself now?

Now, rediscover who you are in God. Perhaps you’ve been listening to too many voices that aren’t God’s. Perhaps your eyes have been drawn to things you’ve envied and desired, causing you to lose sight of your true identity. Maybe you’ve noticed that all your efforts to find fulfillment seem in vain, leading you away from your true purpose in life. Perhaps you’ve been searching in so many places, hoping to find your true self, only to end up trying to be someone you’re not. It might be time to stop and listen to who you really are according to what has been Written about you.

My True Identity In Christ Jesus

At some point in life, we all seek our identity. Many of us dislike aspects of ourselves—how we look, the sound of our voice, or the way we are. We envy others’ beauty, physique, status, or success. We feel jealousy and bitterness, and this can lead us to self-hate.

In our efforts to fight these perceived inadequacies, we continually compare ourselves to others. We desire what others have and convince ourselves that we must have it too. This relentless pursuit to outshine others, to be noticed, to be famous, to be liked, and to be loved, drives us to the top of the list. But are you in a competition? Have you forgotten who you truly are? For centuries, humanity has been misled into believing that outward appearance is the true measure of a person. But that’s never true. Our bodies fade, age, deteriorate, get sick, and eventually return to dust.

What do you want others to say about you? How would you like to be remembered when you die? Pause and see your true self in Christ Jesus—your true identity. You have been given so much, and nothing can take that away from you. Look in the mirror, read this message out loud to yourself, and live as God designed you to be.

Below is the list of who you are in Christ Jesus.

If you find this a blessing, go and share that others may find their true identity.

You Are The Faith

Faith is never something we need to seek or chase after, because it is never distant from us. Faith is not an amulet or talisman, something we wear for power or protection. Faith is not a magic wand that you brandish to ward off bad situations. Faith is not an emotional ride, where your feelings dictate your fate. Faith is not a detergent to cleanse away evil spirits. Faith is something implanted by God within you. It is a built-in divine application that, when activated, accomplishes what you once thought was impossible. A phone remains just a phone without software applications. Only when you activate these applications does your phone become smart and powerful. Activate the faith within you, and witness the wonders it can bring to your life.

THE E-GADGET IS MY SHEPHERD

The E-Gadget is my shepherd, my spiritual life shall not want. It makes me to sit down and do nothing for His name sake, because it requires my spare time. It keeps me from doing my duty as a Christian, because it presents so many info that I must see.

It restores my knowledge of the things of the world and keeps me from the studying God’s word. It leads me not to evening worship services and doing nothing for the Kingdom of God.

Yea, though I live to be a hundred years I shall be viewing my E-Gadget as long as it works. For it is my closest companion, its sound, its picture, they comfort me.

It presents entertainment before me and keeps me from doing important things with my family. It fills my head with ideas, which differ from those set forth in the Word of God.

Surely, no good things will come into my life, because my E-Gadget offers no good time to doing the will of God. With this I will dwell in the place of the devil and his angels forever.
