So, we will pause for a moment from Proverbs to say Thank you Lord for Annabella Grace Barba, born yesterday. What a wondrous and gracious miracle—life. Chosen, formed by your mighty hand as a gift to your humble servants—Alberto and Lindsey as an expression of their love first for you and their love for each other.
Psalm 127: 3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Psalm 139: “13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.15 My substance was not hid from thee….17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.”
Isaiah 44 (ASV) 23 Sing, O ye heavens, for Jehovah hath done it; shout, ye lower parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein …24 Thus saith Jehovah, thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb: I am Jehovah, that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth
