For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Psalms 139:13 NIV True Story Recently The beauty of the heartbeat Comes forth a new life Even before this heartbeat one is being Knitted together as a master piece Recently, I was on a trip At a water amusement park Learning about dolphins from a tour guide One could swim and play With the dolphins if they choose They would come up do tricks with one Let one grab ahold of their fin Swim one around the pool So ,this guide tells on one occasion This lady had paid her money Ready to swim with the dolphins So exciting this must be. Eagerly she awaited her time As many were in front of her. Finally, it was her time to glide Across the pool The dolphins turn to bring her joy So, the dolphin out of habit swims Swiftly to greet this young lady They seem as excited as the people. But, in this moment the dolphin Was headed towards her Then, stopped in complete standstill Seemingly ,confused is this dolphin Not, to approach this young lady. No one knew what was going on. This took the trainers by surprise Why is this happening. So later they found out A dolphin before it approaches A human it hears the heartbeat In this moment there was two heartbeats. This dolphin knew it was a baby within So it did not approach to harm. God, sends us so many warnings. Sadly, in blindness not many recognize.

Yeah ,I never had a Dolphin as well, : ). Just dogs and cats , have always been amazed by dolphins though, especially after hearing this story about them, seems they might have more respect for the heartbeat of mankind than many mankind itself.May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: )

An interesting story, dear Stephan. Incredible too. Dolphins are supposed to be very intelligent creatures. The dolphin of the show could understand that the lady was pregnant listening to the twin heartbeats. When God sends out signals, we humans are not able to discern them. How sad!

This is very true Valsa,. This story did amaze me , was great to hear after , hearing all the fuss In U.S. about fighting for laws to kill the unborn,. May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: ). We know all have a part of God within, many just need guidance to get one to seek and be awakend within through Christ: )
