Amazing! Magnificent!
That's how God made you. Because making what's amazing and magnificent is what he does, fired by his fearless imagination and everlasting love.
God has an extra special way of making living things like you. He has arranged his tiny atoms into something amazing called DNA. It's like a special set of instructions, twirling and twisting, winding and unwinding to make you one-of-a-kind.
From you to the beginning of the universe, follow the story of your DNA as part of God's time-spanning, deepest-reach-of-space-embracing plan.
