Unique and Wonderfully Made

Feb 26, 2024 | Carol Joy Holling Camp

“I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well.” – Psalm 139:14

My favorite time of the year is winter. I love the falling of snow and the look of God’s creation when snow sits on all the trees, bushes, and hills. Some winters, I don’t get to appreciate that as much as I want. That hasn’t been the case this winter.

I think of all the snowflakes falling from the sky and how each snowflake has been uniquely created in shape and size. God has created us all like the snowflakes that come from above. We have all been uniquely and wonderfully made, created to be the best versions of ourselves that we can be.

As summer camp approaches, we look at and remember our theme verse from the Psalms that will guide our discussions. Praise be to God for the uniqueness and beauty that each of us bring to this world!
