What do we all have in common? We all have belly buttons! Some have innies and some have outies. We all have belly buttons because we all have mommies and our umbilical cords were cut the day we were born.  

So I have a question about one man. What about Adam? He didn’t have what we would call a traditional birth. Genesis says,  “Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” So what about the umbilical cord? It doesn’t sound like Adam had one. If not, does that mean he didn’t have a belly button?
 
I may be mad, but I think God looked at his creation, saw how wonderful his work was and, just like any new dad would want to touch his child, God reach out and poked Adam in the belly and said, “Goochicoo!” And just like that, Adam had a belly button!

So my vote is yes, Adam had a belly button. What do you say?

I LOVE the thought of God reaching out to "play" with us. I have to wonder how often he still does that today with us as adults!! Maybe it isn't goochicoo anymore but what else could it be? Thoughts???

One of my favorite "Jesus" movies was the one that CBS did a few years back. I did not much like the scene where Jesus was tempted by Satan in an Armani suit ... but I DID LOVE the scene where Jesus and his disciples are walking along the shores of Galilee and Jesus, joyfully and giggling, takes his prayer shawl and whips it at John! I think God is playful!!! I'm all over your Goochicoo theory!!! ;-)
