"For You
created my inmost being;
You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise You
because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful,
I know that full well." Psalm
139:13-14
How much might my life change if I read, absorbed and
lived these words daily! I should not listen to the words of the world. The
formula it uses is not God's formula and I always end up short of their
requirements and spend too much time and money trying to fit in. Better to
listen to what God says about me.
I was reminded of a poem I wrote a number of years ago.
1:1.62
Beauty has been
plucked
from the eye of
the beholder
and lies in
mathematical formulae
proposed by
Fibonacci
The face carefully
measured
Length and width
One divided by the
other
1:1.62
The Golden ratio
The face in three
acts
Hairline to eyes
Eyes to nose
Nose to chin
A trinity of equal
numbers
Nature’s symmetry
presented
Length of ear and
length of nose
The same
Width of eye and
distance between
The same
Luck would have it
Most faces
match the
measurements
and for those that
don’t
the right
hairstyle disguises imperfections
Fibonacci has
uncovered
the fingerprint of
the Maker
God sings creation
into being
ofttimes flaunting
the formulae
Beauty is never in
the eye of the
beholder
or in the
mathematics
of Fibonacci
but in the design
of God
He looks
not for a Golden
Ratio
but for a tender
heart
