Poem Title:
Poem
Man has mused over life’s origin for ages. The thoughts and treatises of the sages, filling tall tomes tallying thousands of pages, tell of evolution in stages over millions of ages. Life, some say was sparked by lightning arcs. Amino acids were formed by the electric sparks. These amino acids served as life’s building blocks something like a mysterious genetic black box. Or, maybe, the first molecules of life met on clay, forming a pattern that looked like a lei. Over time, they trapped other molecules like prey and organized them in a complicated genetic way. Some surmise that life began at deep-sea vents, formed where the continental shelf rents, allowing hot fluids from the earth’s core to escape creating an environment where life can take shape. Enough of the silly, spurious, scientific speculation. Is it incomprehensible that life began with God’s creation? Of all the speculations, it is the only logical explanation. Our belief about life’s origin has profound implications. The Bible in Genesis declares that God created life. The crowning act of creation was Adam and his wife. Whether fishes, birds, animals, bees, and trees, the sacred book tells us God created all of these. Because God created us in His image, we have intrinsic worth. Apart from this reality, humans are no more than dirt. If we were not created by God for a purpose, then our life here on earth is an existential circus.
