One thing that I would like to share with readers is the brilliance of Almighty Providence in his design of man's body.

From spending countless hours in studying cadavers this semester and knowing the names of upper limb muscles, the original insertions of muscles, their distal insertions, innervation, arterial supply as well as prime action, secondary action and synergistic action; has led me to fall on my knees and marvel at Providence's designs.

I marvel at the miracle of the human body and how it operates. It is amazing how we operate, from the collagen type I that forms the bone, to the synovial fluid that forms in between ligaments, to the periosteal layer that forms above the bone itself that allows it to be fed through a nutrient artery. How every bone is attacked to each other through a ligament; and a tendon's connection of bone to muscle. In awe, I am marveled at how there are so many kinds of muscles that vary in specifics. We have muscles that supinate, that pronate, that flexes, that extends, that abducts, that adducts, that circumducts etc.

I am amazed that throughout the entire body, every single muscle is fed through a arterial supply, and a nerve ending; as well as the presence of a venuol pathway that allows any deoxygenated blood, stitial fluid as well as wastes to be returned back to the venous system back to the heart to be re-oxygenated. The presence of leukocytes within the venous system that attacks pathogens via antigenic markings.

I am amazed by the superficial as well as deep fascias that invests around the cutaneous tissue layers as well as the deep muscular layers.

I am amazed that there is a categorical organization of every single fiber, every cell, every tissue, every system, throughout the entire body.

I am amazed that tissue itself is already programed during the 8-9th week of intrauterine life (embryonic to fetal period).

How we form within the womb, how we grow and develop appendages through pre-programmed development. The manifestation of hematopoeitic stem cells to differentiate into specific cells: fibroblasts, chondroblasts, primordial mast cells, erythrocytes, neural cells, skeletal muscle, smooth muscle as well as cardiac skeletal etc. etc.

The fact that there is a system of check and balances within the body, and the processes that operate to maintain internal homeostasis of the body.


It deigns one to shout the supreme brilliance of Providence in his design of Man.

By the grace of Divine Providence,
the heart of man is formed.



Let me explain to all of you the marvelous brilliance of Providence in his architectural design of man's heart:

Blood vessels first appear int he wall of the yolk sac, allantois and chorion. They develop within the embryo shortly thereafter. Spaces appear within aggregation of mesenchyme, known as blood islands.

The spaces soon become lined with endothelium derived from the mesenchymal cells. These primordial tubules sprout and unite with other vessels to form a primordial cardiovascular system. Toward the end of the third week, the heart is represented by paired endocardial heart tubes that are joined to blood vessels in the embryo and in the extraembryonic membranes (yolk sac, umbilical cord, and chorionic sac.)

By the end of the third week, the heart tubes have fused to form a tubular heart that is joined to vessels in the embryo, yolk sac, chorion, and connecting stalk to form the primordial cardiovascular system.

The primordial blood cells--hemangioblasts--are derived from mainly from endothelial cells of blood vessels in the walls of the yolk sac and allantois.

By the end of the third week, the heart forms and upon its complete formation; it immediately starts to pump blood and circulates the fetal blood. It has been designed that by the end of the third week, all fetal hearts will pump and it remains active and pumping non-stop. It continues to pump after the fetus exits the mother's uterus, continues to pump when the child grows to adult size, and continues to pump until death.

Isn't it so wondrous how PROVIDENCE designed our heart? That he so willed it to pump by the 3rd week of life! 3 weeks after conception, the embryo already pumps blood.


LORD, MY MIGHTY AND BRILLIANT GOD,
On my knees I fall.

LORD, MY MERCIFUL GOD,
As I study your works in embryology, histology, anatomy,
ma kujawan man ko intawn, GINOO, sa imung brilliance, sa imung MAJESTY in your designs, LORD!

GINOO KO,
Ikaw man ang na design namo tanan, Ikaw man ang editor, ang columnist, ang deliverer of all these constructs, LORD.

On my knees, LORD, I glorify THEE.



AMEN!

minute meditations

The Eucharist and the Poor   
If we really believe that he, Jesus, is in the appearance of bread and he, Jesus, is in the hungry, the naked, the sick, the lonely, unloved, the homeless, the helpless, the hopeless, then our lives will be more and more woven with this deep faith in Jesus, the bread of life to be eaten with and for the poor.

This weekend has been filled with its share of demands (studies, group reviews, etc) and I was personally having an internal turmoil because I haven't visited church in 2 weeks to attend mass. So I went to the student lounge to do some readings from 11am till 3pm. I took a break from studies by 3 pm and took a walk to digest the information.

Still, I was having internal turmoil because of not attending mass. I could not take it anymore and walked to the nearest Roman Catholic Church from the medical campus, towards St. Bernard's Roman Catholic Church.

When I arrived to the church, I tried to open the front doors but they were locked. Ka ingoon ko that I was being reprimanded by Providence and felt distraught. I walked around to the side and was led to the side by sounds of the church bells. To the joy of my heart, I saw that the side doors were open widely. And as I entered the House of God, my heart felt so relieved to be able to come inside. And immediately to my attention I saw the shrine of the Blessed Child Jesus with the Blessed Mother Mary. Santo Nino. Santo Nino, Blessed Child Jesus, has always been with me (I have an image of HIM in my room and have had it since college years; and even in medical school). I was led to church and to the sight of the Blessed Santo Nino, the Child Jesus.

My heart has been relieved and all my inner turmoil has been taken away from me. There really is nothing compared to going to church. Especially visiting the Holy Sacrament. :)

Truly, The Lord works in mysterious ways.

An excellent video that covers the basics of human intrauterine development.

By the grace of Almighty God,

After the 24th week of intrauterine development, the fetus already shows signs of adaptative abilities for post-uterine life. The fetus begins to kick, move, and show muscular reflex, which are already pre-programmed within the fetus, for life outside.

Beautiful video.

Life begins AT Conception.
