I want with it!
God
Answers ~ “For God formed my inward
parts; God covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret,
and
skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet
unformed. And in Your book they all
were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand”
(Psalm 139:13-18a).
If You Are A Christian
~ “Do
you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you
have from God? You are not your own, for
you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body” (1 Corinthians
6:19-20).
“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to
present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is
your spiritual worship” (Romans 12:1, ESV).
