Psalm 139.13, 14 (NIV)
For you created my
inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I
am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full
well.

| The very fact of something's having been made is certain proof of there having been a maker.* |

The human body was
purposefully made. It was not accidentally formed or gradually produced. God designed
it and breathed life into it. He created the prototype out of nothing but his
power. He is the God of biology. I may be the result of a genetic combination
made up of parts of my mother and my father but I am not just a random product of my parents’ combined DNA. I am the person
God meant for me to be. He chose the ingredients that would make me me.
We join David
in exclaiming over the intricacies of the human body and marvel that this
physical shell can contain our soul. What keeps the eternal part of us from
breaking free from the body? In Colossians
1.17, we get a clue: “In him all things hold together.”
How incomprehensible is
God’s creation!

| What a value hath God set upon the soul! He made it after his image, he redeemed it with Christ's blood.* |
