ANOXIC JESUS


The most uninterested person in science knows, that we all need oxygen- or air, containing oxygen; to  survive; an absence of which results in deterioration of bodily functions, brain death and cardiac death.

Point is, no oxygen equals no life.

And that, is the exact implication of anoxia.

Enough about oxygen.

Switching over to Jesus. We might have to put on our calculatory boots for this little exercise.

Jesus was dead for 3 days. 3 days, of absolute lack of oxygen, 3 days, of anoxia and tissue/organ death.

His brain cells, should no longer be viable.

But, as we know, he resurrected from anoxia to full perfusion of body organs, from a GCS of zero, to one of 15.

Absolutely impossible, if considered logically; but makes sense if considered supernaturally.

Daily, during my study of the Bible, I receive fresh insight on the healings performed by Jesus.

Case study: the woman, with menorrrhagia (issue of blood).
Mark, records that she had suffered in the hands of doctors.

SUFFERED.

In the hands of scholars of their time, excellent physicians and surgeons.

Perhaps, those of that caliber, in our day, might have provided the solution, but again, that would be a solution 2,017 years late- which is simply preposterous!

Just a touch from Jesus, and as power left him, all the books were rendered useless, knowledge rendered  helpless in that moment.

Man, that hurts!

So, today; is all about celebrating the Christ. The one who defied all hurts and literally went to hell and back for us, and more eye-widening is his return to full cerebral (as well as other organs) perfusion, with no damage to any end organs- without a transplant.

Let us reflect today, on the supernaturality of the gospel, and remember what made us believe.

#MONDAY’S PROSE THIS CHILD; ON THE ROAD

Through my myopic eyes, a fleeting image of a little boy is formed on my retina A little boy in a little suit, Treading the familiar bushy routes before him The boy had neither escort nor directives And surely, he needed none For a 4 yr old on the road possesses more maturity than a 10 year old in ‘comfort’ Swiftly, she navigated through cars held in traffic An adventurous smile tugging at her split lips Providing snacks for impatient car-owners And though panting from car-chasing, She had a visible life of passionate content She probably planned to get off the street, Forsake her hypothetical ‘street-urchin boyfriend’, Give up this demeaning way of living, But I feared she wouldn’t! She hadn’t been wired to get off the street And sadly, she was too content to stage a forced exit. Children on the road and teenagers of the road, Not choosing to be this vulnerable Yet hooded and shrouded in the cold, Filled with shreds of hope that the fut...

#POETRY# MOMENTS

So, it’s another Monday. Today’s poem is on moments, appreciating them and taking second looks at the seemingly mundane. Enjoy! MOMENTS You never know, you just never know There he was last night, holding your hands, Looking into your eyes with passion beyond expression, And then; here he was this morning, telling a sad tale of never! Who knew love could become so tasteless overnight? It had seemed over in less than a flash; So much for the deep love you shared. Where it all ends, you just never know! Memories of baby’s not so far away childhood, Flickered before her eyes like a dimly lit flame Was it not just last summer she had started crawling? And in what appeared to be less than 24hours, She had walked, jumped and taken sandwiches to school And now, she fit smugly into a graduation gown, cape and all, Her baby was now a grown woman And those memories were all she had left! He stroked her tapered fingers lovingly as he wept by her beds...
SALIENT LESSONS FROM THE CORONARY ARTERIES The coronary arteries provide blood supply to the heart, the blood pump. Some of its duties are outlined and deductions are saliently made from them. 1.       REPLENISHMENT: The first lesson to take from the coronary artery is that it replenishes the heart. While performing the work of pumping blood to other tissues, the cardiac muscle is replenished by means of its 2 coronary arteries. 2.       DIRECTLY SOURCED: The coronary arteries, unsurprisingly, take origin from the aorta, the main artery leaving the left ventricle, carrying oxygenated blood to all branch arteries of the human body. Thus, it originates from the principal source of maximally oxygenated blood; this points to the fact that it reveres impartation and not opinions. 3.       PERFUSION: The coronary arteries ensure that blood gets to every part of the heart by means of its several branches. Branc...
