Stamped with God's Image (1 of 12)
Series: Unshakable Hope

Genesis 1:26; 1 Peter 1:13-25
The Psalmist declared
Psalms 139:13 You created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Think for a minute about the complexities of the human body. The average person speaks between 12,000 and 20,000 words each day. In order for speech to take place, however, 72 individually controlled muscles have to work together to form a single word.
The average person has two and a half-million hairs on his body. Hair is used to both cool and warm our bodies. Do you know what I call two hairs on my head? A convention!
Every 24 hours you will take 7,200 breaths, and you will breathe in 3600 liters of air. Your lungs were pink at birth, but they grow darker each day because they can't filter out all of the air's impurities.
Did you know that your ears continue to grow throughout your life? But larger ears do not improve your hearing. And did you know that your nose smells in stereo? Without your stereophonic nose, your food would taste as bland as a communion wafer.
The average person dreams four times each night. You can survive 40 days without food (as long as you drink water), but the human body cannot survive more than eleven days without sleep because of our need to dream.
Your teeth start growing six months before your birth. In the first century, the Romans whitened their teeth with human urine. So much for the expression, ''When in Rome do as the Romans!''
80% of your brain is composed of water and it is more active asleep than awake. School teachers, when your students fall asleep on Monday, that's the most active their brain will be all day! Your brain operates on the same amount of power as a 10-watt light bulb - and that's about what it puts out, too!
The bones in your body are four times as strong as concrete. The hardest bone is the jawbone. Maybe tha ...
