Miracle of the Nervous System

The Nervous System is one of the most complex systems in the human body. The system monitors and controls all the activities and functions of every cell, tissue, and organ in your body. The realization of your existence and life on this earthly plane depends on the nervous system. It controls your personality, senses, thoughts, intelligence, memory and understanding, basic body functions, and how you relate with other human beings. According to Life Scientists and Medical Doctors, the nervous system is composed of the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS consists of a network of nerves that transverses all cells, tissues and organs of your body. The nervous system serves as the decision and communication center of your body; the brain serves as the control room, while the spinal cord functions like a super highway, instantly conveying messages to and from the brain. God in His wonderful design protects both the brain and the spinal cord with bones. The skull protects the brain and the vertebra protects the spinal cord. The basic functioning of the nervous system depends on nerve cells also called neurons. Bundled together in a network of thin threads, nerve cells carry messages back and forth just like telephone wires. All your senses and activities such as seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, thinking, remembering, memorizing, dreaming, breathing, heart beating, moving, running, sleeping, laughing, singing, feeling pain or pleasure, studying, or writing depend mainly on the nervous system.
