“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be” (Psalm 139:13–16).
I see Ezekiel Andrew Lasher for the very first time—my third grandchild. As I gaze upon his perfectness and beauty, I consider the words of David in Psalms 139. Fearfully and wonderfully made—how true! I cannot fathom a more beautiful creation. Ten tiny toes and ten miniature fingers, reddish tinted eyebrows and a hint of hair upon his crown.
Totally dependent on his caregivers for his each and every need. Completely trustworthy for all from the outside world.
