micro-channels inside them. These receptors have been specially created for va-

lished? Anyone could find it difficult to come up with two miniaturized
shapes that match each other so exactly, unless biochemistry is specialty

and the profession of the individual concerned. Yet there are many other
similar examples of this in the body. Moreover, both the hormone vaso-
pressin and the chemical receptors in the kidneys are constructed by cells
in completely different areas of the body. Nonetheless, the result is a flaw-
less compatibility. This is an example of our Lord's mercy for His servants.
By means of this bonding, the kidney is given the command to with-
draw the water molecules from the urine. Thanks to this communication

system, a large portion of the water molecules are separated out and intro-
duced back into the bloodstream. As a result, the amount of urine is re-
duced, and the body re-acquires water it would otherwise have lost.
But if a person has drunk excessive liquids, then the mechanism
