“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book.” (Psalms 139:13-16 NIV)

You were born special!

You are a winner! You were born that way! It's really true! At conception you won an incredible race against millions of little “competitors” who were racing towards the goal of conception and you got there first! Just think about the odds of that! On the day you were conceived you were already a big winner! Not only that, but God was part of the process! The Bible says He “created your inmost being” and “knit you together in your mother’s womb”. And what He did there is described as “wonderful”. Wow!

Therefore...

Whenever someone asks how you are, you can honestly answer with complete confidence, “I am wonderful! I am a winner!”

And God has plans for you!

“Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us.” (Eph. 2:10 ESV)

“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.” (1 Peter 3:9-10 ESV)
