If I spoke all the seconds of my days
I could not apt describe the human form,
For ev’ry cell and fibre does amaze;
The learned best feel wonder at the norm.
Exquisite is the mind, and even now
No one can understand the thoughts of man,
But I of hope and faith can thus avow
That through Your love and grace so I began.
O Father, how I’m awed by all You’ve done!
How You can make the atom and a star!
I once was a creation, now a son;
Christ’s sacrifice transformed my soul by far.
So marvelous Your works both great and small,
Yet You are greater still, over it all.
~~~~~~~~~~~
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Psalm 139:14 KJV

1 Corinthians 1:22-27 our minds are foolish compared to HIS WISDOM; Proverbs 9:10 which the IsraELites discovered in the wilderness and get HIS WISDOM by fearing HIM IsaiAH 11:2 WHO is WISDOM; 1 Corinthians 2:16 says that we have the MIND of CHRIST – All this comes to mind as I read this sonnet. Thank you, Jay! I cannot imagine what I would have done without all these verses after the brain injuries. Brain injuries come in many forms.
