| “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.” |
| —Psalm 139:13 |
We joyfully celebrate the works of everyone who creates something wonderful. We praise those who have taken the talent God has given them and used that talent to create something that benefits others.
If I mention the name Alexander Graham Bell, or Thomas Edison, or Dr. Jonas Salk, you can immediately identify them as the much celebrated creators of the telephone, the electric light bulb, and the polio vaccine.
Is it any wonder that the Psalmist, King David, considered his own being and wrote these words in Psalm 139:13-14:
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
David recognized the power of God and celebrated God’s creative genius. He gave appropriate praise to the One who has created everything.
As we begin this new day, we, too, should celebrate the creative power of God. He has given us both first life and new life through His Son, Jesus. That surely is creative power worthy of our highest praise.
