“THE UNBORN”

Psalm 139 is a beautiful picture of how God is involved in every single aspect of every person’s life. The first 12 verses discuss how, no matter where David went, God was always with him. God knew his thoughts (v. 2), God knew his ways (v. 3) and God knew his words (v. 4). Furthermore, God knew David when he was in his mother’s womb, long before he had thoughts, ways or words (vv. 13 – 14)

The same holds true for every person in the world. God is involved in every aspect of a human’s life. While some think a person’s life, as well as God’s involvement in it, starts the day they are born, it is clear that God is involved well before the day of birth: “You created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb” (v. 13). In Luke 1:26 – 38, the angel Gabriel explained to Mary that she would give birth to the Son of God. She was understandably confused because she was a virgin. However, the angel explained that the Holy Spirit would conceive a child in her. 

Just as Psalm 139 describes, that child would be formed and knit by the hand of God. While Jesus is the only human ever to have been conceived by the Holy Spirit, all children are formed by the Creator.

Today's Prayer:

Jesus, you knew me before I knew myself. Thank you for creating me and for creating me with a purpose. Help me fulfill your purpose for my life. Amen.
