Do you feel like a loser in the gene pool lottery? Do you compare yourself to others and find yourself lacking? Do you wish you were someone else?
Knowing God designed you helps you understand the significance you have in His eyes. You are special. You are created in His image.
You are not an accident!
The Bible tells us that He formed each of us individually in our mother’s wombs and that we are the work of His hands. What an amazing thought—how deeply we are known by the Creator of the universe! Consider these verses and spend some time quietly pondering your significance in God’s eyes.
