Cradle of Faith

A commentary series on Psalm 139 in haiku poetic form.

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

Psalm 139:13                              

Not just skin and bones 
Hair or chunky baby fat

Although these are loved.

Out of nothing known
You made body, mind, and soul,
Feat unmeasurable.

Hidden in her womb

Mother hosts the miracle—
Peerless handiwork.

Quote to Ponder . . .

You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you.

― Augustine of Hippo , The Confessions of St. Augustine
