[274]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – THE INSTINCTS OF LIFE
The purpose of this poem is to demonstrate the stupidity of evolution. Evolution is an excuse not to believe in God and therefore not to be accountable, but woe to the evolutionist, for a day of accountability is coming. {{Hebrews 9:27 “Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgement.”}}
Any honest examination, especially in spending many years with nature as I have done, will show beyond dispute that creation is ordered, precise and magnificent. Everything has its place and awareness down to the tiniest fly and even the germ.
This poem resulted in one of my walks photographing rainforest fungi which I do, and watching the jacana in its stately walk. I guess if you don’t live in the Australian wet tropics you may not know what a jacana is. Here is a description –
[[ The jacanas are a group of tropical waders in the family Jacanidae. They are found in the tropical regions around the world. They are noted for their elongated toes and toenails that allow them to spread out their weight while foraging on floating or semi-emergent aquatic vegetation. They are also among the somewhat rare groups of birds in which females are larger, and several species maintain harems of males in the breeding season with males solely responsible for incubating eggs and taking care of the chicks. ]] You will easily find a picture of one in a search.
In order to disguise the stupidity of evolution, these adherents speak of “millions of years” and “very gradual change”. Well in “gradual change” they would have become extinct. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth then later created all life on earth. It was not random nonsense or fairy tales. {{John 1:3 “ALL THINGS came into being by Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.”}}
The poem is dedicated to the jacana. “Instincts of life” means that every created thing acts in the way God programmed it – right from the start!
Those who discount God to believe in the delusion of evolution, can not hide their heads in the sand because one day every single person will face the truth. Everyone is accountable.
=============================================================
THE INSTINCTS OF LIFE
I watched a Jacana yesterday,
Along the edge of a man made dam.
Among the reeds it foraged its way,
Where fallen leaves, concealed fish that swam.
=================
It saw me there but did not worry,
Continuing its mission with grace.
No need to leave in a winged flurry;
It knew there was no danger to face.
=================
This long-legged bird has very long toes
That can walk on lily leaves so well.
It does not sink as along it goes
From one leaf to the next, looking swell.
=================
“Gradual change” evolution claims.
How did it survive with shortened toes?
“I want longer toes,” its wish it names,
“To get me out of these walking woes.”
=================
Evolution nonsense, for without
That length of toe, then the bird would die.
It would sink and drown without a doubt.
“Gradual” is evolution’s lie.
=================
How many ducks died before they “learned”
To waterproof their feathers to swim.
Over how many centuries earned
That knowledge, so things would not be grim.
=================
The koala eats eucalypt leaves -
Highly specialised – that’s its diet
From the start. To that food source it cleaves,
Not small steps. Evolution, be quiet!
=================
The instincts of life; creation’s plan -
God made each species to be distinct.
From the beginning, perfection ran,
Otherwise all life would be extinct.
