When did you last praise God for the marvelous way he made you?

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—and how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.
Psalm 139:13-16 NLT

Praise for God's Workmanship

Any biology text can illustrate how wonderfully complex the human body is.
From brain cells to blood cells—each intricate component of our bodies is carefully designed.
You don't have to take a biology course to marvel at how our eyes can take in the bright blue color of the sky, how our ears can detect a pin drop, how our nose can enjoy the aroma of ground coffee or the scent of a beautiful flower.
How exciting it is to enjoy the body God has made for us!
David expressed this same wonder as he prayed this prayer.
Set aside a few minutes today to praise God for his sovereign care.

Prayer for today:
Dear Lord, thank you for making me with such marvelous workmanship …
