‘Male and female He created them’

Posted

“And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.“ Genesis 1:27

If God created mankind male and female and He created each of us in our mother’s womb, as the Bible teaches in Psalm 139:13-16, who are we to say that our infinitely wise Creator, who created and stretched out the entire universe (Isa. 40:22), got it wrong when He created each of us either male or female?

O all-wise and almighty God, grant us the wisdom to humbly trust in You and rejoice in Your creation of the universe and of our own bodies and souls. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
