For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book, they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. Psalm 139:13-16

Did you ever think about how you came into being? Before Christ entered our lives, most believed we crawled out of the swamp or were related to monkeys through evolution! If you consider our journey to the womb of our mother and the progression of her pregnancy, our birth is a miracle of God!
We are fearfully and wonderfully made, and we are created in His image. A plus for us, seeing that we are His children, we look like our Father. As we grow in the Lord, we take on His characteristics, and our old nature develops into a divine one, transformed by the Holy Spirit.
The word says that God thinks about us, and His thoughts toward us are more than can be counted. Even more than the sand of the sea! It is hard to believe that the Creator of the universe thinks about us, but think of how many thoughts you have for your children!
How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand. When I awake, I am still with You. Psalm 139:17-18
