Psalm 139:14 (KJV)
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Have you ever considered what an amazing creation the human body, soul and spirit are?

Life begins when a seed fertilizes an egg. God provided a place for this created baby to grow and develop all the parts of the body.

Then at the right time the baby enters the world able to breath and cry!

The human body is created to reproduce blood as needed and to send the life-giving blood to every part of our body through arteries that are in specific places.

Our heart beats and pumps blood in an out. Our lungs fill and empty as we take breaths!

When we have a small cut, it may bleed for a few minutes, but our body knows how to clot and stop the bleeding.

Our brain sends signals to our entire body so we can move, see, hear, and so our heart, lungs, kidneys, digestive tracks, and bones operate correctly.

A newborn understands how to swallow and kick and as a baby grows so does the abilities to laugh and play and crawl and walk.

Our brains are like computers, storing information and making decision based on the information it has. Our lips know how to smile, and we automatically know to chew our food.

Teeth appear to help us to chew our food and hair and nails appear in all the right places.

I could go on, but you get the picture. This body is fearfully and wonderfully made.

The body is the house for the soul and spirit. The soul is the mind, will and emotions and those control our actions. What an awesome truth that is.

Our Spirit is what understands the Truth of the Word of God and the sacrifice Jesus made. When our Spirit is made alive by our Trust in Jesus as our Savior and Lord, our body, soul and spirit can work in harmony to live the life God intended for us.

In a world that is not perfect we sometimes have babies born or bodies afflicted that are not in perfect working order but even in those situations our body is created to adjust and function anyway.

I know people who are missing a limb due to an accident or maybe even at birth, but the body adjust to using the limbs they have or adjusting to a man-made limb.

God has given us Doctors who can replace arteries, kidneys, lungs, eyes, and all sorts of other parts of the body.

Thank God for good Doctors. All knowledge comes from the throne room of God and He has created the human body to live and adjust to physical limits.

But in the Spirit man we can walk free and clear from infirmity. We can have Joy and Peace deep in our innermost being no matter what is going on in the physical.

God the Father created us with the place inside that is only filled with His Spirit. If you are perfect in the physical but are not letting the Holy Spirit fill you, you are more handicapped than any physical infirmity.

The awesome, powerful Almighty God created you body, soul, and Spirit. Life the way it is supposed to be must be operating with all three.

We each are Fearfully and Wonderfully made. May we not waste a second thinking about our imperfections but may we understand that we are amazing creations and we have what we need through Jesus Christ.

In Jesus name I pray. Amen
