13 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.[a] Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Psalm 139:13-15 (English Standard Version)
This verse appeared more than once, in different places. Either I was reading, listening,or watching something that brought this verse up: “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” He created all of us to be the originals we are. We were made in His image, and no other creature on earth can boast that. I am guilty of comparing myself to other women. I wonder why I do not look a certain way or weigh a certain amount. I continually complain that I am not good enough, or at least not as good as someone else. That makes me a boring person. Who wants to be around someone who is always complaining?
Instead, I need to be reminded that God has purposefully made me the way I am. With what I have, I can serve Him by serving others. I can love others because He loved me first. I need to praise the Creator and stop hurting his creation. His creations should not be worshipped, only Him.
I really do not have much to say. I just felt that if I needed to read this, someone else did too. In how our society is continually trying to change us and tell us that we are not how we were meant to be until we make drastic changes. That is a bunch of lies. He is powerful and wonderful, and we were wonderfully made. Do not fall for the lies! Seek the truth!
