Psalm 139 Verses 13-14

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.

Our bodies are wondrous things. It is amazing that something so complex can work so well. It is so incredible to see a child born….to see the first breath drawn. All that grown from two tiny cells. It doesn’t seem possible. So beautiful and so fragile. Only God could create such beauty.

If only we cared for our bodies with equal fervor. We eat more than we should, smoke cigarettes’, don’t exercise and do lots of other things that wear us out before our time. We are not careful with God’s creation.

Prayer: Thank you God for the gift of life. Thank you for the bodies that you created to house our souls. May we learn to treat the temple of our soul with more caring. AMEN
