Psalms 139:13-14
These beautiful words alone, should be enough
To infuse my soul with with God's divine gift to just "be".
However, the continual efforts of the enemy
To strategically place hindrances and blinders in my path often
Have me battling to remember that I was "fearfully and wonderfully" made.
I was made in God's image.
This fact offers a profound sense of comfort and pride that I find indescribable.
When I struggle to run this race called life
The Master bestowed upon me
The Holy Spirit lovingly reminds me to Whom I belong.
God formed me in my mother's womb.
The miraculous incredible beauty of His omnipotent act
Is a testament of His boundless love for me!
So when I feel as if I'm "unraveling"- His Word reminds me that
He "knit me together in my mother's womb." (Psalms 139:13 NLT)
As I encourage myself, I pray that you, dear reader, will also be encouraged.
Know that we were created by the Master of workmanship and we are
Fearfully and Wonderfully made!!
"...and let us run with endurance the race God has set before us." (Hebrews 12: 1 NLT)

Even in elementary school, the cliques are set and self-esteem affected. I used to send our daughter out the door with this question: What are you? Her answer was, “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
