The Spark


All the ingredients of our world on the Periodic Table

We are a sum of our combined parts

Break us down and what are we

Elements

Elements alone cannot create life

Combine them and perhaps

Hydrogen plus Oxygen

Seventy percent of the earth

Over half of the human body

Water seems to be the necessary key

But actually it’s God that makes me

He is the chef that cooks using the elements of the periodic table

Creating the bounty of life on Earth

We have all the elements

But we can’t create the spark

The spark of life

That lights the soul

That makes it happen

God is the creator

Of life

I  cannot live without HIM
