Believe What God Says About You - Beloved Women - April 24, 2024
READ: “I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.” (Psalms 139:14 ESV)
TODAY'S ENCOURAGEMENT: We live in a noisy age where everyone has an opinion about everything (even about you). Gone are the days when people used to say, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say at all” (and certainly not on the internet). Thankfully, we get to choose who we listen to.
It makes sense to tune our ears to the words of God; He knows us best. Before time, God envisioned everything about us: our personality, quirkiness, habits, and our outer image. He strategically formed us in our mother’s womb.
Who we are is not happenstance but an intentional decision by God. We can rejoice that He has done a great work in creating us. We are not defined by man’s opinion of us because they look at our outer appearance. We are defined by the creator of the universe and He says we are “wonderfully made”.
PRAY: Dear God, Help me to believe your truth and not the opinion of man. May I rest in the reality that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Amen.
REFLECT: How are you encouraged by the fact that you are “fearfully and wonderfully made”?
