Me a masterpiece?

A couple things hit me with Psalm 139.

Verse 13 - "You knit me together in my mother's womb"; and verse 15 & 16 - "When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be".

1) God surely has a purpose for my existence.
2) How can you ever support abortions? From Gods lips - life starts in the womb!

Finally, this Psalm wonderfully describes the omniscient (all-knowing), omnipresent (everywhere present), and omnipotent (all powerful) God. I recently read "The Shack" (highly recommend it), and I think this Psalm has greater meaning for me because of it. I have limited God in my life, in my thoughts, and in my prayers.....He is the Creator! He took a blank canvas and created a masterpiece - with the world, with you, and with me. I may often feel unworthy, ugly, or failing - but God sees a masterpiece when He looks at me.

Thank you Jesus!
