God can when man can't...



Mankind is getting smarter every day. Advances in science are taking the superior human race further and further into amazing leaps in dealing with health and social issues. Even with all of those advances we still fall so short of the ability of our creator God. For example, Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is only 25% as effective as the heart beating on it's own. Mankind is getting smarter every day and there is nothing wrong with science but reliance on it to the point of trying to explain away God is risky and proves that intelligence has it's faults. God blesses us with knowledge but with increased knowledge comes increased responsibility.

..."For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more." Luke 12:48

If God blesses you with knowledge and certain abilities you have a responsibility to use it wisely and to use it for the glory of the creator.

Brooke,

You are right. God can handle any problem that comes our way if we just let him. Unfortunately sometimes we just don't get it. We try so hard to "fix" things and so often we won't turn it over to God until we've really messed things up.
