Laminin

A few months ago an email made its way around the net describing an amazing structure in the body that holds things together -- Laminin. This immediately made most of us think of Colossians 1:17, which states, “He [Christ] is before all things, and in him all things consist / hold together.”

Since then I have seen a video by Louie Giglio entitled "How great is our God!" In the closing minutes of the video he goes into detail about Laminin.

CLICK HERE to view a snippet on You Tube (about 8 min and 43 seconds) from that video where Louie Giglio talks about Lamin and shows pictures.

To know more than you ever thought you would want to know, Wikipedia has a short technical explanation re Laminin. Here's the LINK.

Bottom line: My take on this is that this is not something to base our faith on nor to use to try to ‘convince’ someone to believe in God or to be saved. But it is another one of those wonderful insights into the structure of God’s creation and an additional confirmation to us that the God we love and serve is truly awesome!!
