He Is Our Creator!

"For you formed my inward parts, you covered me in my mother's womb" Psalm 139:13

This verse proves that personhood does exist from the moment of conception. The words confirm God's knowledge of every life from pre-embryonic stage through death. God's character goes into the creation of every person. "Your hands have made me and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments." Psalm 119:73

The depth of this Psalm speaks that we belong to God. He formed us and our mothers were blessed and chosen to carry us. Just as Jesus belong to Him, He chose young Mary to carry and give birth to Jesus. We belong to God. He formed, created, and covered us in our mother's womb. The very truth of this is why abortion is so painful to God.

The unborn are known intimately and called out by God. Jeremiah 1:5 says, " Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born; I sanctified you; and I ordained you a prophet to the nations." Also the unborn possesses personal characteristics from the moment God knits them together, from the moment of conception. God looks upon the unborn as fully human.

The verse means properly to weave, knit together-meaning God carefully weaved our very parts together. It also implies protection. Once He created us He concealed us with a covering. There is such an ownership and creative design here. As our creator, before we are even born He knows the innermost of our being. He knows our thoughts, feelings, intentions. This is a beautiful thought. It is indeed a miracle only of God.

"Oh Father God, we thank you for the miracle of creating us. We thank you for your beautiful design. We thank you for your love. In Jesus name, Amen."
