Daily Reflection — Wonderfully Made
From: The Integrated Catholic Life
“You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother’s womb. I praise you, because I am wonderfully made; wonderful are your works! My very self you know.” (Psalm 139:13-14)
Every single one of us is made intentionally by God. No exceptions! Imago Dei—in His image He made us.
Although we lost His likeness through Original Sin, we have never lost His Image—the dignity that derives from the fact He made us out of love and in freedom for a supernatural end. Yes, we sinned, and yes, we are dependent on His grace, but we are wonderfully made and redeemed by His Son. Called to holiness, in humility let us let go of our sin and allow Him to transform us into who He made us to be.
