So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
      
--Genesis 1:27

It’s amazing and awesome to think about the making of the body of man. God has done a miracle not only in creation, but in the birth of every human being. Each person is a magnificent and mysterious unit of living complexities that God stitched together in the womb of his or her mother!

God has also performed a miracle in the way He created us to mature. What makes our bodies grow and develop the way they do? It’s all part of God’s magnificent creation!

Science explains that the body is constantly changing, breaking down, and being built up again. Think about that. That is the marvel of God’s handiwork!

And we can’t forget God’s brilliance in constructing the mental capacity of humans. We are capable of learning so many things… things that animals could never learn. You can see the power of God’s creativity when you consider the capabilities of the mind. Words cannot adequately explain the beauty and marvel of this creation.

Finally, it’s important to remember that God created in man a spiritual marvel. That’s why in Genesis 1 we are told that God created us in His image. It means we have a likeness to God or that we are in His shadow. In our fast-paced life, we don’t usually take the time to think of these great wonders.

Remember that each of us have cravings for deity, the capability for dominion, the capacity for dignity, and the comprehension of destiny. The only question that remains is why are you living? What’s your purpose? God has made you to fulfill His plan… and to worship Him with your mind, your body, and your soul forever!

 ARE YOU FULFILLING GOD’S PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE?
