who thought of that?

A few years ago, my daughter and I were scheduled to sing

at our church. As I was looking at the sheet music,

I began to wonder...who thought up musical notes?

Who decided what symbol would represent which sound

and what that sound would be called?

Last week, a co-worker brought in a baby blanket she had

crocheted for her new granddaughter.

Later, as I was thinking about it, I wondered who figured

that out? Who thought about taking yarn, knotting it and making

blankets, scarves and sweaters?

Yesterday, C.W. and I drove by the Museum of Aviation

at our Air Force Base. He saw the planes and asked,

"How do they make them so big, Gran?"

I said, "I don't know, but what I really don't understand

is how that multi-ton plane flies. How does that

very heavy thing stay up in the sky?"

My friend, Kim at My Field of Dreams

just had surgery to remove cataracts.

After months of having trouble, she is seeing clearly.

Who figured out what cataracts are and that removing them

would not hurt the eye but would actually make it better?

The list could go on and on. There are so many amazing

things in our world that are just there and we don't really

think about what precious gifts they are.

Gen. 9:6 says. "God made mankind in His own image."

He gave us intelligence and the ability to reason.

And, I believe, God divinely inspires His creation

to be creative!

"But it is the spirit in man, the breath of the

Almighty, that gives them understanding."

Job32:8
