2. You Are Not an Accident

 

You are not an accident. Your birth was no mistake or a fluke of nature. You are alive because God wanted to create you! He custom-made you just the way he wanted it, including the natural talents you would possess and the uniqueness of your personality. He planned it all with great precision.

Because God made you for a reason, he also decided when you would be born and how long you would live. God also planned where you'd be born and where you'd live for his purpose. God left no detail to chance. Nothing in your life is arbitrary. It's all for a purpose.

God didn't need to create you. But you were also created as a special object of God's love! This is a truth to build your life on.

If there was no God, we would all be " astronomical accidents". Life would have no purpose or significance. But there is a God who made you for a reason, and your life has profound meaning! You are who you are, beloved, because there is a God!"

 

Question to Consider:
I know that God uniquely created me. What areas of my personality, background, and physical appearance am I struggling to accept?

Verse to Remember:
I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born.

Isaiah 44:2
