Abortion: The Price of a Rug

Read Psalm 139

Today as we continue to look at the beauty of God’s design. We need to take a look at one word from verse 15, “skillfully.” The word skillfully refers to the kind of work done in needle work. Another word that describes skillfully is woven. Think of a beautifully woven together rug, like a Persian rug. No one looks at that rug and then says how insignificant it is, no they look at and realize that it took great skill to create it and then they attribute great value to the rug. I was looking online at prices of some of these rugs and I saw one valued at $30,000. Isn’t it amazing how much value one will place on a rug that was skillfully created. But when it comes to a human being in the womb who is skillfully created little to no value is placed. I am not suggesting that we put a price value on the unborn, but rather they should be looked at as priceless.

Father thank you for skillfully creating each and every one of us. Help us to see the value that you place on your creation.
