"O the Depth of God's . . .Wisdom" - Evidences of Divine Wisdom

Have you ever marveled at the ingenuity of a craftsman who makes beautiful things that work well? That is an impressive type of wisdom.  (Exodus 31:1-3) Jehovah himself is the source of and the ultimate  possessor of such wisdom. King David said of Jehovah:  "I shall laud you because in a fear-inspiring way I am wonderfully made.  Your works are wonderful, as my soul is very aware." (Psalm 139:14)  Indeed, the more we learn about the human body, the more we find ourselves awed by Jehovah's wisdom. 

To illustrate:  You started as a single cell-an egg cell from your mother, fertilized by a sperm from your father.  Soon, that cell started to divide. You, the end product, are made of some 100 trillion cells.  They are tiny. About 10,000 average-sized cells would fit on the head of a pin. Yet, each one is a creation of mind bogging complexity.  The cell is far more intricate than any man-made machine or factory. Scientists say that a cell is like a walled city-one with controlled entrances and exits, a transportation system, a communications network, power plants, production plants, waste disposal and recycling  facilities, defense agencies, and even a sort of central government in its nucleus.  Furthermore, the cell can make a complete replica of itself within just a few hours!
