Life begins at conception. God has a plan for each and every little child. Without question, people are God’s greatest creation. We are His crowning achievement. As the psalmist David beautifully expresses, “For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well” (Psalm 139:13–14).
From the moment of conception, each human life is a unique and precious gift. God’s intricate design and meticulous care are evident in every detail of our being.
This masterpiece of God’s creation, the human being, is incredible. Scientists estimate that adult human bodies contain 16 trillion cells, each performing its specific function in harmony. Consider these statistics about the human body and the amazing things it is capable of:
- The nose can recognize 10,000 different aromas.
- The tongue has about 6,000 taste buds.
- And the brain contains 10 billion nerve cells.
- Each nerve cell connects to as many as 10,000 other nerve cells throughout the body.
- In fact, the body has so many blood vessels that the combined length could circle the planet two and a half times.
- God has custom-designed each of us with our own unique DNA blueprint, which every cell contains. And if you were to write out your individual blueprint in a book, it would require an estimated 200,000 pages. God, of course, knows about every word on every page.
Scripture reveals that God has a plan for each of us, even before we were conceived. The prophet Jeremiah wrote, “Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations” (Jeremiah 1:4–5).
