I have a son who has autism and a daughter who has mild cerebral palsy. Each day they live with the challenges of their disability. My wife and I don’t look at them as children with disabilities but as creations of the Almighty God who formed them. No matter what you think of yourself, you are wonderfully made too.
Psalms 139:13-14
“For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.”
God is at Work in Your Life
God doesn’t make junk. No one is a throw-away. Your creator wonderfully makes you, and He lovingly created you in your mother’s womb. Life is precious to the Lord. From conception to death, He is at work in your life. Do you look at yourself as God’s creation? David did. He praised God for forming him in his mother’s womb. He knew that the Lord wonderfully made him, and it resonated with his soul.
Measure Right
So many people live wishing they were taller, their eyes were different, or their hair wasn’t so curly, and miss who out on the blessing of how God created them. Our world has broadcast what an ideal person looks like, and everyone who doesn’t measure up is second class. For the believer, their affirmation needs to come from their Maker and not some fake model.
You are Wonderfully Made
Does your soul know you are wonderfully made? Are you striving to be someone else? You are who God created you to be and what other people say doesn’t matter. Find your peace and contentment that when God was forming you in your mother’s womb, He was doing it out of complete love. You are wonderfully made.
