I was sitting in the hospital surgical waiting room this morning visiting and waiting with friends. We got to talking about the way the body works, all the little details, things that are related and connected inside the body that cause the body to work so efficiently. For instance, the jawbone muscle. One reason that doctors tell you to chew your food for so many bites is because when the jawbone is working it causes the digestive system to work more perfectly. Who would know that the jawbone and its muscle was connected to the digestive system?

I just thought about, and rejoiced over, that scripture in Psalms 139, "We are fearfully and wonderfully made." The degree of involvment the Lord has with us concerning our physical bodies is unfathomable!

Take time sometime to study your hands, or your shoulders, or you knees to see how intricately things work. We seldom notice unless we have had an injury to some part of our body. Shame on us for not taking time!
