When the queen bumblebee wants to lay her eggs, she first gathers flower nectar. Then from her abdomen, thin sheets of wax are extruded. She collects these with her feet and brings them to her mandibles to chew, shape, and form into a cell or 'pot' in which to put honey, which she will eat while incubating her eggs. Eating this honey will reduce the amount of time she needs to spend searching for nectar away from the eggs. Once she has this food store, she gathers pollen and forms a ball of pollen mixed with honey. On this ball she lays 4-16 eggs. She extrudes more wax and covers the pollen and eggs. Next she sits on her eggs like a setting hen. She lies with her abdomen gently over the wax covered ball, keeping it at about 86 degrees F as she shivers her flight muscles which generate heat to keep the eggs warm. The warmth of her body causes the eggs to hatch in 4-6 days, and after 21 days, young bumblebees emerge.

How did the queen bumblebee figure all this out on her own? Clearly, she didnt!

There is no such thing as simple life. God in His wisdom created these fascinating creatures.

WHO TAUGHT THE WEAVER ANT?

Ants are fascinating creatures that showcase the Father's divine creation. One very interesting example is the weaver ant. If you have never heard of it, you will today!

The weaver ant is native to Asia and Africa. What makes them unique is the way they craft their nests. Lets start with the fact that any tiny creature wouldn't be able to figure this out on their own.

Weaver ants take it a step further. Several steps actually. Their nests consist of living leaves, joined together in a ball using specially produced silk. But how they sew the leaves together is a remarkable feat of cooperation. Typically, some of the ants will need to form a chain to first bridge a gap between two leaves, then pull them together so another team can hold them in position while more ants sew the gap together with silk. But adult ants can't make silk, so they have to use larvae to do it, picking the larvae up and using them like little pots of glue to spin a mat of silk between the two leaves.

Now how do you think the lowly ant decided to just pick up larvae and use it for glue? How do you think the ants just go together to decide to do this? Sadly, the atheist will not see it. To them, everything is random chance. But we know there is absolutely no way this comes without instilled intelligence.

Proverbs 6:6-8

Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.

BRIGHT FLASH OF LIGHT AT CONCEPTION

Recently, researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago have shown that a kind of "firework" occurs when the human egg and s***m unite, forming a zygote. As shown in the artist’s illustration , at the moment of conception, a flash of light occurs as a zap of energy is released around the newly fertilized egg. Though scientists had seen this phenomenon in other animals, the Northwestern researchers were the first to see it in humans. The flash occurs when the s***m cell enters the egg, triggering an increase in calcium, which then releases zinc from the egg. As the zinc shoots out, it binds to small molecules that emit fluorescence. In a press release, one of the researchers shared her excitement in this discovery: “To see the zinc radiate out in a burst from each human egg was breathtaking.”

This serves as yet another parable in nature pointing to God, the unseen Source of the light and life of the world. From antiquity, there has been a recognition that there is a relationship in the natural world between light and life. This association was used by the Biblical writers to point to the deeper and unseen reality of the gracious relationship between God and his creation. The nature and quality of this relationship was fully and finally revealed in the incarnate Word of God, Jesus Christ, beginning with his conception in the womb of Mary by the Holy Spirit as she received and freely submitted to the invisible Word spoken to her by the angel of God. You will recall Mary’s response: “Behold, the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word” (Luke 1:38 KJV).

LIFE BEGINS AT CONCEPTION

Evolution is a lie. People believe things like this occurred by random chance! 🧠💥

Did you know that kangaroos produce two types of milk for their babies? One kind with extra nourishment for babies in the pouch and another for when the babies leave the pouch. How could this have evolved? It couldn't! God made the kangaroo equipped with what baby kangaroos needed from the beginning!

TRILOBITE VISION

One of the first arthropods found in the fossil record is the amazing trilobite, common in Cambrian and Ordovician sediments. Many of these creatures are so well preserved that a detailed analysis of their eyes has been possible:

The elegant physical design of trilobite eyes employ Fermat's principle, Abbe's sine law, Snell's laws of refraction, and compensates for the optics of birefringent crystals. Thus, trilobites could see an undistorted image under water. Imagine being able to see with undistorted vision in all directions, being able to determine distance in part of that range, while, at the same time, having the optimum sensor for motion detection.

So, from the beginning, arthropod vision has been extremely complicated, a fact not clarified by Darwinism

Evolutionary theorist Dr. Herbert Spencer (1820-1903) spent many years promoting the idea that the universe made itself. After years of contemplating the make-up of the universe, he came to the conclusion that all physical reality could be described in terms involving just the five basic components:

1.TIME
2.FORCE
3.ENERGY
4.SPACE
5.MATTER

Is it pure coincidence that the very first verse of the Bible contains the exact same five components? Moses penned the following words approximately 3,500 years before Dr. Spencer came to his conclusion:

In the beginning...TIME
God... FORCE
created...ENERGY
the heavens... SPACE
and the Earth... MATTER

God makes it abundantly clear from the very first verse of His inspired Word, that He is the one who made the universe.

Genesis 1:1 - In the beginning God made the heavens and the Earth

THE YUCCA PLANT NEEDS THE YUCCA MOTH AND THE YUCCA MOTH NEEDS THE YUCCA PLANT...

THE YUCCA MOTH PROVES CREATION..

"If it could be proved that any part of any one species had been formed for the exclusive good of another species, it would annihilate my theory." -Charles Darwin

The yucca plant and yucca moth. If one species were created first without the other being close by, it could not have survived on its own; these two separate and even different species must have come into existence at essentially the very same time. Yucca is a desert plant that grows in arid regions. It blooms at night and the fragrant white flowers attract the Yucca Moth, which is the only insect that is capable of penetrating the shape of the yucca bloom. Each different type or species of yucca has its own species of moth that pollinates it. The pronuba moth is the only insect that pollinates the soap tree yucca and it doesn't pollinate any other kind of plant. Scientists have found up to 67 different kinds of insects on or using the soap tree yucca, but this moth is the only one that pollinates it. Every May the soap tree yucca blooms. It has lots of creamy off-white colored flowers on its stalk and the flowers are only seen for about 6 weeks, so the moths don't have very long to do their job of pollinating.The moth lays its eggs inside the yucca plant and has specialized tools to do this. When the moth's larva hatch, they eat the seeds of the yucca plant. Without the Yucca Moth, there would be no Yucca plant because its pollen is too heavy to be wind-blown to fertilize other plants, and the Yucca Moth is the only living thing on Earth that has the tools to open the Yucca's pod. The Moths are only active when the Yuccas are in bloom. The rest of the time they are burrowed in the sand -- waiting. The two species (Yucca and Moth) are designed by our creator to need each other and they had to have been created at the same time to survive! Evolution is a big fat impossibility here.

EVOLUTION CAN’T DIGEST THIS FLY

Conifers aren’t bothered by too many insect pests. That’s because the oils
that give them that nice pine scent are poisonous. They would be poisonous
to the conifer sawfly larva if it digested them, too. But while it munches the
pine needles, its body is busy storing the poisonous oils for future defense.
The fact that the sawfly not only eats pine needles, but also uses the
poisonous oils for defense, poses a difficult problem for evolution which
appears to have no solution.

The sawfly larva’s unique ability makes it a serious conifer pest both in North
America and Europe. Part of the larva’s secret is its digestive system. It
separates the poisonous oils in the pine needles from the nutritious pulp.
Then it regurgitates the poisonous oils and stores them in two special sacs in
its mouth. These sacs are lined with a chitinous material that protects the rest
of the mouth from the acidic, poisonous oils. When threatened by a spider or
even a bird, the sawfly releases some of this bad-smelling oil in the direction
of the threat. This strategy effectively convinces most aggressors to seek a
meal somewhere else.

The problem for evolution is that these complicated structures and special
abilities could not have developed in a gradual, step by step fashion as
evolution demands. If the sawfly once did not originally eat pine needles, then
how did it acquire the special ability to eat them and develop this special
defense system? So, even this humble fly bears witness to its Creator.
