Zebrafish
Acts 26: 12-18
"To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me."
How amazing the Creator! He endowed zebrafish with remarkable abilities. According to Smithsonian Magazine, these minnows have supersized powers. When their brains are damaged, they regenerate. When their fins are cut off, they grow back. When they are blinded, they regain their sight. That’s why scientists at Vanderbilt are studying the zebrafish’s retina regenerative abilities to find applications for humans. Could one of God’s smallest creatures help the blind to see?
The miracle of sight could never have happened randomly or through a set of biological accidents. It’s a God-given endowment.
In Paul’s testimony before King Agrippa, he spoke of how Jesus had appeared to him on the Damascus Road and told him to share the message that opens the eyes of the blind. May the Lord give us the same task! May we take the Resurrection message to those blinded by Satan, and may the Creator of the zebrafish open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light!
A point to ponder…
May God open your eyes to see the reality of His kingdom in your midst, may He open your ears that you may clearly hear His voice.
