FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE

🤼‍♂️ More Than a Wrestler

William was strong, determined, and disciplined. He understood the grind, the effort, and the perseverance that wrestling requires.

But what made William different was this:

👉 His identity didn’t come from wins or losses.
👉 It came from knowing who he was in God.

🧬 Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

Science shows us something incredible about the human body:

Your DNA

· Every cell in your body contains about 3 billion base pairs of DNA.

· If you stretched out all your DNA, it would reach ~6 feet per cell—yet it fits inside a microscopic nucleus.

· Your DNA acts like a coded instruction manual, more complex than any human-made software.

· The odds of your exact DNA combination existing are essentially zero—you are completely unique.

📖 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.” — Jeremiah 1:5

Your brain

· Your brain has about 86 billion neurons.

· Each neuron can form thousands of connections—creating trillions of synapses.

· It can process information faster than the world’s most advanced computers.

· It enables abstract thinking, creativity, morality, and love—things science can describe but not fully explain.

📖 “You have given me understanding.” — Psalm 119:73

Your heart

· Your heart beats about 100,000 times per day.

· It pumps around 2,000 gallons of blood daily.

· Over a lifetime, it may beat more than 2.5 billion times—without rest.

📖 “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” — Proverbs 4:23

Your cells

· Your body has about 37 trillion cells, each performing specialized tasks.

· Cells constantly repair DNA damage, fight infections, and replace themselves.

· Your immune system can recognize and destroy threats it has never seen before.

· Cuts heal. Bones mend. Skin regenerates.

📖 “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3

Your body

· You began as a single fertilized cell.

· That one cell divided and organized into a full human body with:

- - A beating heart (within weeks)
  - A functioning brain
  - Distinct organs and systems

§ All guided by encoded instructions and timing.

📖 “You knit me together in my mother’s womb.” — Psalm 139:13

Your brain and body work together with precision, strength, and purpose.

You are not random.
You are not an accident.

You were designed with intention.

You are God’s masterpiece.

That means:

Not because of performance…
Not because of achievement…

But because you are His.
