God’s deep love for us is immeasurable, intimate, and awe-inspiring, as revealed in Psalm 139:13-18. This passage is a tender reminder that each of us was created with divine care and purpose. It paints a vivid picture of God’s hands at work in our very being, weaving our delicate and intricate parts together with unmatched skill and love.
Imagine the Creator of the universe, who shaped galaxies and placed the stars in the heavens, taking time to fashion every detail of your body, mind, and soul in the secret place of your mother’s womb. “You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside and my intricate outside, and wove them all together in my mother’s womb.” This isn’t distant or abstract love—it’s personal, intentional, and deeply invested in who you are.
God’s love marvels at your complexity, celebrating the unique masterpiece that is you. “I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex! Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking.” His intimate knowledge of us is more than just awareness—it’s a profound connection. He knew every bone in your body before you were fully formed. He envisioned every step of your life before you took your first breath. What kind of love is this, that plans every detail of your existence and cherishes your individuality?
More than this, God’s thoughts toward you are constant, precious, and too vast to comprehend. “Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought!” His love is relentless and steadfast, remaining with you through every moment of life, from the first heartbeat to the moment you wake each morning. He’s still there, faithfully present, lovingly aware.
In a world where love often feels conditional or fleeting, Psalm 139 assures us of a love that is eternal, purposeful, and tender. God’s love sees your worth and delights in you completely. It’s a love that not only formed you but also sustains you, accompanies you, and celebrates the beautiful, one-of-a-kind creation that you are. Rest in the truth of this love today—an unshakable, divine love that holds you in its embrace.
Scripture for Meditation:
“You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside and my intricate outside, and wove them all together in my mother’s womb. I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex! Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking. It simply amazes me to think about it! How thoroughly you know me, Lord! You even formed every bone in my body when you created me in the secret place; carefully, skillfully you shaped me from nothing to something. You saw who you created me to be before I became me! Before I’d ever seen the light of day, the number of days you planned for me were already recorded in your book. Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you’re still with me.”
