Laminins

This was sent to me in a email: 'Laminins are a family of proteins that are an integral part of the structural scaffolding of basement membranes in almost every animal tissue.' You see....laminins are what hold us together....LITERALLY. They are cell adhesion molecules. They are what holds one cell of our bodies to the next cell. Without them, we would literally fall apart. Here is what the structure of laminin looks like...AND THIS IS NOT a 'Christian portrayal' of it....if you look up laminin in any scientific/medical piece of literature. G-d is the coolest!!! The glue that holds us together....ALL of us....is in the shape of the cross. Immediately Colossians 1:15-17 comes to mind. 'He is the image of the invisible G-d, the firstborn over all creation.
For by Him all things were created; things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him.
He is before all things, and in Him all things HOLD TOGETHER. ' Colossians 1:15-17 We are held together...one cell to another....by the cross.

Cool ins't how the structure of the cellular molecules all come together. I remember when my forensic prof was teaching on that when we covered the DNA stuff. I remember thinking wow how cool is that.... see now i like this stuff the science stuff like that.
Love ya,
