Kristi Muszik Do you genuinely believe that you are marvelously made? Going further, do you think others around you are marvelously made? Another step further, do you believe your enemy is marvelously made?
Every humankind is marvelously made. Unfortunately, not everyone believes so. That’s why the pain of rejection is felt.
People who do not understand the miraculous qualities of their person or others end up hurting themselves and others, commonly through rejection.
I didn’t fully understand the marvelous creator I am, and I hurt myself by rejecting myself and allowing others to mistreat me. But the more I bathed in the presence of our heavenly Father and allowed Him to breathe His love upon me through His Word, the more my view changed.
I am learning to love my person with the Father’s love. I am learning to look at others, even my enemies, through the eyes of the Father’s love. Through God’s love, I can see the world differently and quickly forgive where forgiveness is needed.
With honesty, it doesn’t come easy at first, and there’s lots of crucifying to the flesh when my flesh cries the opposite of love. But it’s worth the time and effort. So rewarding.
Reflect
Please take a moment and allow the Lord to breathe His breath of love upon you. Dig deeper into His word and discover the mystery of His love. Learn to believe you are breathtaking, my dearest friend, for you are.
Prayer
Dear Lord, help me to see myself the way you see me. Your beautiful masterpiece that you have created me to be. Help me to understand and know the deepness of your love.

Psalms 139:13-15
TPT
You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside
and my intricate outside,
and wove them all together in my mother’s womb.[a]
I thank you, God, for making me so mysteriously complex!
Everything you do is marvelously breathtaking.
It simply amazes me to think about it!
How thoroughly you know me, Lord!
You even formed every bone in my body
when you created me in the secret place,[b]
carefully, skillfully shaping me[c] from nothing to something – (TPT)
AMP
For You formed my innermost parts;
You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was being formed in secret,
And intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth.- (AMP)
NLT
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—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. – (NLT)
