The Human Cell

Our body is fearfully and wonderfully made.  Each cell is an independent entity.  It is endowed with LIFE.  There are billions upon billions of cells in your body, and each provides a dwelling place for LIFE.  In short, LIFE is distributed among these billions of cells.  The life span of each cell is from 1 to 120 days.  Each is dependent upon the food you eat for its nourishment, and its length of life depends upon the quality of that food. 

There are many different types of cells in the body.  Each type forms into the different structures --- bone, teeth, muscles, brain, nerves, internal organs, etc., and each type of cell requires a different combination of nutrition.  We might compare the various cell types to the various types of buildings, which require different types of construction material.  There, however,  the comparison ends.  The body is an organic structure and is endowed with LIFE.

A cell takes in nourishment and throws off waste.  It makes its own structural repairs and gives birth to new cells.  In other words, it is a LIVING, individual substance with an intelligence from God.
