My Faith Boosts - Thoughts

One of my favorite ways to encourage myself, in order to avoid struggling with faith, is that I remind myself of strange things that already prove that God can do the impossible. For example, consider the platypus:

 

1. They are one of the only mammals that lay eggs.

2. They are venomous.

3. They sweat milk for their young. Milk oozes from glands on their abdomens onto their fur for their young like sweat. Their babies then suck the milk from the mother's belly fur.

4. They have a singular rear hole used for both reproduction and using the restroom.

5. They keep their eyes closed under water and then rely on electrical signals to detect prey and to move around like sharks do.

6. They glow blue-green under black light or UV light.

7. Some hibernate, entering into a state called 'torpor' and don't move for several days.

I think of stuff like this to calm myself down, because if God can create bizarre stuff like this, then surely he can answer my prayers. I don't know, maybe this will encourage you too.
