Have you ever thought how special you are to God? You are His possession from the time He created you. There is such an individuality between God and us that it is difficult not to feel His love when reading Psalm 139. For every person created, God was pleased to create. A baby in the womb of a mother is God’s creation. It is God Who gives form and development to that child at the moment of conception. David said, “For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb” (vs. 13). The word knit is to fasten together closely and firmly (Webster Dictionary). Knitting a shawl, we perceive that the thread needs to be tightly together, in order to sustain its strength and the ability to be used for long time. Imagine how orderly God created us! In perfect harmony and in perfection of action among the organs. Think of the brain and its complexities. It is a world of information restored in it as it is the control center of the body. No human being, smart as they can be will be able to create the body as God created with life and the brain with the ability to think, to reason, to decide, etc. It constitutes the part of the soul: the intellect, the emotion, the will. For every child that has been born, God wrote in His book all the days of his/her life (vs.16b). In some cases, there has been defect due to the parent’s taking drugs, or smoking cigarette, or alcohol, or even due to vaccine. This is not a work of God, but of man, who in his sinful nature, has altered God’s creation. God knows what’s best to keep our body healthy and strong. When He was knitting us together, He thought of us individually as special. He planned our future as in the number of days of our existence on earth: “Your eyes saw my uniformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them” (vs. 16).
