O Lord, how manifold are your works! in wisdom you have made them all. - Psalm 104:24
Can we learn anything about watermelon? According to William Jennings Bryan, famous american lawyer and creationist, a watermelon speaks volumes about God. Bryan wrote, "recently someone planted just one little seed in the ground. Under the influence of sunshine and shower, it took off its coat and went to work gatherering about 200,000 times its own weight. It forced all that material through a tiny stem and built a watermelon. On the outside it had a covering of green; within that, a rind of white; and within that, a core of red. Scattered on the inside were more seeds-each capable of doing the same work all over again. What architect drew the plan? Where did that little watermelon seed get its tremendous strength? Where did it find its flavoring extract and its coloring matter?" Bryan then pointed out that until we can comprehend the amazing watermelon, we dare not underestimate the power of the almighty. In showing us these wonders, the Lord has demonstrated His infinite wisdom and power. As we contemplate God's marvelous creation, we are amazed at His handiwok. In adoration we exclaim with the psalmist, " O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom you have made them all."
The signature of wisdom impressed on the woks of God proclaims His Glory. - Newton
