Fearfully, Wonderfully Made

The celebration of the Birth of John the Baptist reminds us through the passages chosen from Isaiah and Psalm 139, that we are not here by chance, but that God has known each one of us from all eternity and that we are beautifully, fearfully, wonderfully made.  Even as we reflect on the mechanics of our bodies, certainly, we have to see that we are a work of genius, a work of art.  But besides that, each of us was created for a purpose.  As we look back on our lives, we can see the role we've played in our families, in our work, among our friends and in our communities...As George Bailey learned, it's a wonderful life, and without our part, so many pieces of the lives of others would have not fallen into place.  Let us give thanks today for John the Baptist, for our lives and for the purpose for which we were created.
