God created us in our mothers' wombs

Posted

“For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.” Psalm 139:13-16

Though God created the first man from the dust of the ground and the first woman from the man’s rib, He formed each of us in our mother’s womb. We were no accident. God created and intricately formed each of our bodies and gave us life. Not only did He give us life, but the days of our earthly lives were already known by Him and written in His book before a single one of them existed.

You knew me, O God, and formed me in my mother’s womb. Your intricate creative work is amazing! Even the days of my life were known and determined by You before I lived a single day. Grant me the wisdom to use my body and the time You have given me in this world to worship and honor You and look to You for my salvation. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
