When God Made You
A Little Cut Here, A Little Cut There
One of my favorite Christmas presents ever is my Cricut Explore Air 2.
Oh, I love that machine!
It took some trial and error, but now that I’ve gotten the hang of it, I’m always thinking about my next creative project.
Here’s one of my first attempts mixing a couple of different free patterns in the Cricut library.
Not bad for a first-timer!
It amazes me how you can design your own patterns too.
Simply adjust the measurements and plug in the extra elements, and the machine blades know exactly what to do.
The cuts are sharp and intricate, even around the most delicate designs.
That’s a smart machine!
But there’s something missing.
This machine can’t just operate on its own. It needs an operator.
God Doesn’t Need Instructions
How devaluing that the world wants us to think we derived from ape ancestors.
You were created by God.
He didn’t need instructions, special blades, a smart machine, measurements or a theorist/geologist telling Him how we should evolve.
The King of Kings created you and me from the beginning.
Do you realize yet how magnificent God is?
The beauty of our anatomy and how everything works together as He planned reflects His glory. We had nothing to do with it.
In this oft-quoted verse from the Davidic Psalm 139, the psalmist praises God’s providential design of the human body.
14 I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well. – Psalm 139:14, (NASB).1
When God Made You
Just how amazing is the human body?
Check this out…
Only God can do this!
He is Sovereign and worthy of all our praise.
Do we approach Him with the reverence He deserves?
