"What was your Bible verse for Sunday School this morning?" I asked Vince and Elliot, who are currently in the same class.
"It was 'And God created great whales," Vince told me seriously.
"No, Dad, Vince is wrong, it was 'And God created little earth worms,'" Elliot said and began to laugh hysterically.
Well, perhaps strangely, it turned out that Vince was right. In fact, there isn't a verse like the one Elliot quoted.
At the same time, we know that God did create giant whales and tiny earth worms -- and everything else we see.
It is fortunate, as well. Any gardener will tell you that they would rather have 50 earth worms in their garden than a thousand Blue Whales. (Now that would be a mess).
God created all things with a purpose, even you and me. The important thing isn't our size, beauty, or intelligence, it is whether we are fulfilling that purpose that the Almighty has set for us to do.
