"Oh
yes, you shaped me first inside, then out;
you formed me in my mother’s womb.
I thank you, High God—you’re breathtaking!
Body and soul, I am marvelously made!
I worship in adoration—what a
creation!
You know me inside and out,
you know every bone in my body;
You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit,
how I was sculpted from nothing into
something.
Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to
birth;
all the stages of my life were spread
out before you,
The days of my life all prepared
before I’d even lived one day."
-Psalms 139:13-16, The Message
I came across this passage during a quiet time early in my pregnancy. I had read it many times before but with the knowledge of a baby growing inside of me it took a whole new meaning. I have prayed this section of Psalms 139 over my little baby many, many times over the last few months. I am so thankful for the little miracle that is growing inside of me and love the thought of God forming him inside of me, knowing him inside and out, and preparing all the days of his life before he is even born.
