I praise you because I am
fearfully and wonderfully made.
—Psalm 139:14
Your heart weighs about a half pound and pumps five quarts of blood through your body every 60 seconds. If you live an average life-span it will beat 2.8 billion times.
Your lungs will breathe in and out 800 million times in your lifetime, inhaling oxygen-enriched air and exhaling damaging pollutants.
Your brain weighs only three pounds, but controls over 100 billion nerve cells and generates more electrical impulses each day than all of the world’s telephones combined.
The human body is a machine that runs
24 hours a day for 80 years. Good job, God!
