Fearfully and Wonderfully Made!

Psalm 139:13 - 18

¹³ For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together
in my mother's womb.

¹⁴ I praise you
because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
I know that full well. ¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from you when I was made
in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

¹⁶ your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained
for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. ¹⁷ How precious to
me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them! ¹⁸ Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.

Nothing inspires me more than to see the wonder of God's work! On 25 November, Benjamin Gibson-Taylor was born! A perfect little treasure...a gift from God! To think that this boy was knit together by God in his mom's womb – absolutely amazing! When one looks at a baby one realises the magnitude of what scripture says we're "fearfully and wonderfully made". God does not just leave it at that – he's got a plan and purpose for each and every child!

Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans
I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper
you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

 

The future of little Benjamin is in the best hands possible…God's and with that he has been blessed with two amazing parents, Bevan & Jo, whom he'll learn from what it means to follow Jesus wholeheartedly – while having stacks of fun in the process! When one looks at this family you realize that doing things God's way results in God's total order and blessing!

 

I am truly blessed to be a part of this celebration of new life and to share in God's goodness and blessing! All glory to God!
