Miracle on a Screen

For You From The Word

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. (Psalm 139:13)

For You To Think About

The ultrasound technician placed a gentle hand on Kelli’s shoulder.  “Would you like to have a look?” she asked kindly.

With a grunt, Kelli turned to view the screen.

No, it wasn’t possible …head, arms, legs, toes?  “It looks like … like …” Kelli groped for words, studying the miracle on the screen in astonishment.

The technician waited a minute.  “Like what?” she asked.

Kelli’s eyes were glued on the screen.  “Like a person,” she whispered.

How often do we forget God’s supremacy as the Creator, and treat the miracle of life with superficiality and carelessness?

That’s one reason technology is so powerful.  Studies reveal that 90% pregnant women decide to carry their babies to term after having an ultrasound.

It’s hard to deny a miracle … when God allows you to see proof of His hand at work.

For You To Pray

God the Creator,

You have knit each one of us together before we were born.  Help us to place a high value on the miracle of life You create in each person.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen
