Did you know you are priceless in the Lord’s eyes? Here’s a reminder from Psalm 139.

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;
for your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
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.

A Craftsmen at Work

Intentional. That’s how we can describe God’s attitude in forming us. It was a personal, thoughtful design. He was a craftsman hard at work creating a masterpiece. Every gene thoughtfully woven; every part wonderfully placed. Our hair color was thoughtfully chosen. The color of our eyes was skillfully picked. Each of us is God’s handywork.

We aren’t accidently made; the Lord intentionally created us. We aren’t generically produced on an assembly line. Each of us is uniquely crafted to fulfill a plan and purpose only we can. This means you are God’s masterpiece. The Lord sees you as someone who is priceless!

Dwell on this truth today. How does viewing yourself as God’s masterpiece help you battle the criticisms of the world?
