Lacewing Magic

The relationship between the beaded lacewing larvae and the California termite poses a real problem for those who believe there is no Creator.The lacewing larvae enter termite nests in order to finish their growth cycle. Later, they leave as adults. The problem is that termites are often still at home when the larvae enter the nest. The termites, 30 times the size of the larvae, pose a serious threat to the larvae. But if you watch the larvae enter the nest, they wave their abdomen to an approaching termite and the targeted termite immediately falls over. Upon further study, scientists have learned that the tiny larva releases a chemical that totally paralyzes the termite. Studies have also shown that the chemical works only on this particular species of termite.The evolutionary explanation is that for millions of years lacewing larvae crawled up to every sort of insect madly waving their abdomens at them – and were promptly eaten! One wonders how the larvae survived at all and why it was that their chemical protection just happened to work on those termites that made nice safe tunnels for them to grow in.To believe that the lacewing's defense developed just by chance is nothing more than blind faith. It's not science. And it is a very opposite kind of faith from those who believe in a Creator!Exodus 8:19"Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” And Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had said.”Prayer: Dear Father, Your fingerprints can be seen everywhere in the creation. Give me keener sight so that I may see more of Your workmanship, and so be led to praise You more. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
