Good afternoon everyone.
Here is today's Bible lesson:
EACH LIFE A GIFT
READ:
Psalm 139:1-16
I will praise You, for I am
fearfully and wonderfully
made. -Psalm 139:14
A young woman was pregnant but unmarried. And even though she lived in a society that didn't place a high value on unborn life, she wisely chose to allow her baby to live.
The child, whom she generoulsy made available for adoption, became part of a loving Christian family who nurtured their precious daughter, loved her, and showed her the way to Christ.
Before that girl reached adulthood, however, she died. Her death left a massive void in her family's life, but it also left behind memories of childhood joy and youthful enthusiasm. Sure, her death created a gaping hole in the hearts of all who loved her, but imagine what they would have missed had they never held her in their arms, shared Jesus with her, laughed with her, taught her, and cherished her.
Every life-every child-is a wonderfully made sample of God's handiwork (Psalm 139). Every human is an image-bearing likeness of God (Genesis 1:27) and a descendant of our first God-breathed parent, Adam.
Death robs us of a certain completion we desire in a life, but it also reminds us of the value of each life God creates (Colossians 1:16). Cherish the gift of life and savor the joy of God's handiwork. -Dave Branon
Every life has been created-
God's handiwork displayed;
When we cherish His creation,
We value what He's made. -Sper

All life is created by God and bears His autograph.
INSIGHT
Psalm 139 is David's marvelous reflection upon the omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence of Yahweh, the God he loved and served. Realizing God knows all things, is everywhere present, and is all-powerful can give the believer amazing peace.
Have a blessed day.
God Our Creator's Love Always
Unity Peace
