We all know some more so than others, how BIG our God is. But it is always thrilling to unravel another awesome mystery in the creation that we often overlook.
I knew about laminin. Here is how wikipedia describes them :'Laminins are a family of proteins that are an integral part of the structural scaffolding of basement membranes in almost every animal tissue.' You see....laminins are what hold us ogether....LITERALLY. They are cell adhesion molecules. They are what connect one cell of our bodies to the next cell. Without them, we would literally fall apart. And I knew all this already. But what I didn't know is what laminin LOOKED LIKE.But now I do. Here is what the structure of laminin looks like...AND THIS IS NOT a 'Christian portrayal' of it....if you look up laminin in any scientific/medical piece of literature, this is what you will see...

Now tell me that our God is not the coolest!!!Amazing.The glue that holds us together....ALL of us....is in the shape of the cross.Immediately Colossians 1:15-17 comes to mind.
'He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.For by him all things were created; things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;all things were created by him and for him.He is before all things, and in him all things consist. (HOLD TOGETHER) Colossians 1:15-17
Call me crazy. I just think that is very, very, very cool. Thousands of years before the world knew anything about laminin, Paul penned those words. And now we see that from a very LITERAL standpoint, we are held together...one cell to another....by the cross. You would never in a quadrillion years convince me that is anything other than the mark of a Creator who knew EXACTLY what laminin 'glue' would look like long before Adam even breathed his first breath!!We praise YOU, Lord!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
