The Genetic Code Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Not based on Sci-fi realms
A life-giving force is weaved inside us
Not by the hands of technology
But by the mighty hands of God
The genetic code is not just a mystery
It's one of the jewels of life
Not made to impress mathematicians
The logic within is beyond mathematics
Only four nitrogenous bases
Are fully responsible for the intricate biology of life
Weaved in a fancy structure of architectural and geometrical black magic
The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule is mathematically impossible to fathom
Let alone to build inside the tiny space of the nucleus of the cell
The genetic code is responsible for the diversity of human life and characteristics
Not intended to cause any unnecessary punishment or strife on anyone
Would you believe, the genetic code is created by the effects of random interactions/chances
Or Is it a very neatly laid down plan by the Almighty and the all-knowing God
Science in its immature judgement put it all into the head of Darwin
In his mind, Darwin theorized that we are a bunch of apes that have evolved over time
And many people actually believed this gibberish
Now, it's not too late to look back at the book of life
And see the unimaginable hand of the Creator
As he weaved the first DNA molecule
From those four components he envisioned a wonderful world
He gave the substance of life a physical apparel
Not as a monument of time and space
Not to be idolized or pasted with fancy titles
He just wanted the substance of life to be dressed in a beautiful and befitting attire
That is as beautiful as the substance of life itself
"He created us in His own image." Genesis 1: 26
Now, what is His image?
Can we break it down into body, mind and soul?
Or should we look at it as the Oneness of the Spirit (mind, body & soul)
Is it the outward human physical characteristics that gives us His image?
Or the substance of the river of life within?
"God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." John 4: 24
