              Welcome; we are very glad you are here.

             Thought for the Day

         Psalm 139:13, “For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.”

     What if your parents called you an accident, but God called you a masterpiece?

     The phrase 'sanctity of life' has been debated, politicized, and trampled on by a culture that no longer believes it's true. However, the word of God says that you’re designed on purpose by your heavenly Father.   You see, the word “covered” literally means “woven.”

     David praises God as the Creator who "wove" him together in the womb. This is not a God who sets life in motion and sits back, but a God who personally and precisely creates you down to your most inward parts.

     When someone knits, they don’t just throw yarn at needles and hope for the best. They carefully, intentionally, stitch by stitch, create something beautiful. That's what God did.

     Your heavenly Father didn't accidentally create you. We also know that God views the womb as sacred, since He placed His own Son in one.  If the womb was good enough for Jesus, it's a holy place.

     When you feel unwanted this week, when that voice whispers "You were a mistake," just look in the mirror and say out loud: "God wove me together. I'm not an accident; I'm His masterpiece." Then thank God for one specific thing about how He made you: your mind, your hands, your heart for justice, your ability to encourage others.

     You weren't mass-produced. You were hand-woven by God Himself.  That's not politics; that's His promise.
