Edible Dirt

It never ceases to amaze me how creative God is Genesis 1:11-12,29. Who else would have thought of building a little seed with enough smarts to:
- Use the food in fruit to start a plant growing
- Take sunlight, dirt, and water, and combine to make a blackberry bush
- Exactly when the time is right, the weather is appropriate, and the bush is strong enough, grow some fruit
- Make enough plant and fruit to survive the voracious appetities of bugs and animals, birds and bees, and hungry kids
- Grow millions of identical seeds to fall to the ground and rot
- Repeat
