Our Bodies
“I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well” (Psalm 139:14).
Humanity feels quite proud of our highly technological age, yet products are still made which are less than perfect. Embarrassed manufacturers are often required to issue recall notices, sometimes at great expense to the company or corporation.
I was recently told of a young man who stood lost in thought as he viewed a large detailed diagram of the human body. In wonder he examined the various organs, veins, arteries, glands, muscles and bones. Then he exclaimed, “Just think, when God put it all together, it worked.”
Yes, God has made and entrusted to us a marvelous piece of equipment. Let’s use our uniquely made bodies in His service and for His eternal glory. “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (Romans 12:1).
