Are You Kididng Me?

by Kelly LarsonPosted on December 29, 2017

The following article is a little bizarre since most words are intentionally misspelled. It is intentional to make a point. It is a little odd at first, but give it a shot, you will be amazed at how well your mind can adapt.)

Are You Kididng Me?

I cdnuolt blveiee 
taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The 
phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at 
Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the 
ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the 
frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a 
taotl mses and you can stlil raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs 
is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by 
istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig, huh?

The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. You can say taht aigan! God has so eqiupepd us in our biran, taht we hvae the alibity to cnorvet asubotle nosnesne itno ratoianl thugoht. How deos it do taht? Wlel, for satrtres, we are cretialny mroe tahn porotlpasimc mtareail that elvoevd form a pirmdoiarl goo. We are cearted in the iamge of God. Yes, we wree! We hvae a dfienite alibtiy to to relfcet the gnesius of God’s hnadirwok.

Wehn you tihnk aobut it, we hvae taht smae alibity wehn it coems to our pyhscial bdoeis. Our bdoy can adpat to mnay diferfnet crimucsatcnes taht a pesron wuold fnid imospsbile. Yes, imospsbile. How in the wrold do smoe of tehse gmynsats prerfom the tihngs tehy do? How can a prseon rmeian udner a plie of erahtuqkae rbubel for tewvle dyas and lvie? The aswner is esay, God has mdae us adipatble and riselinet. He has dseinged us to be a poelpe that suvrvie. Tihs has nohtnig to do wtih evuloiton. Trsut me.

The raeosn wr’ee amzaed wehn we raed smeohtnig lkie tihs, is bceuase we cnnaot blveiee the etxrmeteis of our cpaatilbies. God-gvein to say the laest. God ovbuisoly wnaetd to hvae us arunod for a wihle, in a raletonihsip wtih Him. Pertty sewet, Huh? If we wr’ee not fxlebile, we wuold hvae deid out and God wuold not hvae been albe to ejony His crateoin. Atfer all, He mdae us to ejnoy Him, and glifofy Him, foverer.

We are asbuloelty amzanig, but dno’t let aynnoe tlel you i’ts aynhitng lses tahn God’s glroy. Can we smilpy gvie ceridt wehre crdeit is due? Cuold I say it any mroe claer?  The Bible tlles it lkie it is,

Psalm 139:14 decrales, “I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.”

I get it. I am faefrlluy and wdnefurlly mdae. I am one of His graet wroks. If I am wlilnig to be hnoset, my suol tlles me taht I am a wrok of His. I can lvie whit taht! If our suol tlles us taht we are mdae by Him, our olny rspenose is to prisae Him. Our God is facsitnaing.

Yaeh, Facsitnaing!
