Psalm 139

For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13).

The precious truths of this psalm have penetrated my heart during this past month.  We trusted our God to bring us our new bundle of joy when His timing was fulfilled.  We knew He was busy at work creating, forming and weaving.

Sabrina Raphaelle arrived a little before midnight on Friday, June 25th.  All ten toes and all ten fingers, a beating heart pumping the appropriate amount of blood through her 6 lb 15 oz body, healthy lungs which knew to take their first inhale upon having oxygen available, perfectly formed organs, beautiful pink skin, an innate desire to nurse for nourishment moments after arriving, ears that recognize the voices she’s been hearing for months, eyes to examine her brand new world, and loads of dark hair.

In all of man’s attempts to create and invent, we simply cannot compete with the Lord’s handiwork and the miracle of life.  It is a precious thing to consider that we are individually created in His image.  How thrilling to know that His thoughts toward us are vast!  If we should count them, they would outnumber the sand.  Let us give thanks to Him, for we are fearfully and wonderfully made!
