Bob, May you have many more and continue to follow your Heavenly Father’s calling. I have to inject that while we humans count birthdays from the time you exited your mother’s womb, in the eyes of our Heavenly Father, you are already approximately 280 days older. I say approximately because it is only our Heavenly Father who knows the exact instant you were created. But you are unique.
Human life begins in the twinkling of an eye when only one out of millions of sperm from a man fertilizes a woman’s egg to form an embryo which results in the conception of a human. At the instant of fertilization the baby’s genes, sex and DNA are set, making this creation the only person ever created with that DNA sequence, distinct from all other humans that have ever been created. This creation is so unique that it will have its own set of finger prints, toe prints, iris pattern, voice print, tongue size and shape, dental features and brain anatomy. Once creation has taken place the baby will rely solely on the loving care of its mother’s body for protection and nourishment until it is mature enough to take its first breath, be birthed.
Psalm 8 asks, “what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them. You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.”
