Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

God formed my inward parts…​ hmm meditation. At my conception, 23 chromosomes [from] my biological father and 23 from my biological mother, came together at fertilization and formed me, [a] tiny one-cell embryo. My DNA, the most basic of my inner parts, was formed. My 46 chromosomes were assembled for the first time. This is the exact same DNA for which I have to this day and for the rest of my life. No other person on earth, in the past, present or future, will have the same genetic code as me. I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

The size of my whole being within the first 24 hours was less than the size [of] the head of a pin, but cell duplication is already underway. I descended down the fallopian tube and was implanted in the uterine wall. As the hours tick away, I went from one cell, to two, then two cells to four, and four to eight. Because I was growing inside the womb, the placenta and umbilical began to form to provide the nutrients I would need. Additionally, the amniotic sac formed and began filling with fluid for my protection. Wow! I am fearfully and wonderfully made!

Over the next four weeks, [m]y body continued forming, along with my oversized head and facial features. The placenta continued to provide all the nutrients, oxygen and immunity needed to keep me alive and thriving. My tiny heart was beating 65 times a minute and I was a whopping 1/4 inch tall! Wow, I truly was kn[i]t together in my mother’s womb!

Meditating further, at the end of the second month, my legs and arms had formed from the tiny buds on each side me. My facial features had further formed to the point of forming ears, fingers, and even fingers and toes. The neural tube at the back of my [skull] already contained a brain, spinal cord and other neural tissue. I was no[w] one-inch tall, sporting a skeletal structure and early digestive tract.

{Man still does not know how this is done! When they say test tube baby or invitro-fertilization, do they think they’re playing God? Go get your own inorganic material and start from that! Don’t take organic material God has already made and take credit for it!}

By the end of the third month, my arms, hands, fingers, feet, and toes are fully formed. I was able to open and close my hands and mouth. My teeth were already forming under my gums and my gender was clearly prevalent [no guess work necessary]. I was fully-formed, sporting a 4-inch frame before entering the second trimester.

Yes, God did knit me together in the womb through the natural biological programming he installed in DNA.

By the end of month four, my fingers and toes were very [well] defined. They could hear my heartbeat pumping blood through my veins. Additionally, I was able to grow eyelids, eyebrows, eyelashes, nails, and hair. I was now the impressive length of 6- inches and could already suck my thumb! I had finally left the most vulnerable trimester, passing from first to second.

DH audio: I don’t know how any of us made it through this process. Not one person in here study molecular biology or genetics, but you all pulled it off. You either were born or gave birth or both…​

[We are] fearfully and wonderfully made, and my soul knows it very well!

By the end of this month, I was able to move around in the womb. My muscles have developed enough that I could push against the uterine wall, causing a fluttering movement to my mother. My hair was growing on my head and [my] body was coated with a whitish coating called vernix caseosa to protect my skin from the amniotic fluid. I was ten-inches long and weighed nearly a pound.

DH aud: [I can meditate on my time in the womb and] Yes, he fearfully and wonderfully made me!

At that point, my finger and foot prints, which I would have for the remainder of life, are fully formed. My skin was translucent and all my veins were showing. I could hear sound outside the womb, like my mother’s voice or music playing. Sometimes I develop hiccups, even though I am not eating. Being 12 inches tall and two pounds, I could have survived outside the womb had I needed to.

God was a masterful designer!

My hearing at this stage was fully developed and [I] could hear all the conversations around me[.] and [M]y mother’s voice calmed me [and sometimes upset me,] in time[s] of duress. The amniotic fluid decreased because I had grown to 14 inches and almost 2 pounds. I needed my space! [It’s getting croweded in there.]

In preparation of being born, [I] was able to shift my position and kicked the uterine wall quite frequently. My brain was developing rapidly and my lungs, ears, [and] eyes were nearly fully developed. My immune system kicked in for the coming journey. I was 18-inches and nearly five pounds.

DH/sr: [whether or not you realize this, the mere fact that in the womb you were knitted together, your inward parts, your insides were formed and put together, there is no one to glory but God…​]

Meditating on this fact leads me to better understand how He has been my God from my mother’s womb.

I was fully developed to the point of being able to respond to sounds, light, and touch. It was incredibly crowded in the womb due to growth, forcing me to shift position and turn head down. I was more [than] 21-inches and over seven pounds, fully ready to enter the world on January 28, 1965. After meditating on:
