Meditations for Women Names of God > Elohim These "Names of God Testimonies" were written in
the summer of 1997.
Elohim, the three in one
God, the mighty and strong, faithful One, You are the Creator
of the whole world and all things therein, and You are MY Creator.
"For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb." You have created me. All my internal organs, as well as my mind, were created by You. I am Yours - body, soul, and spirit - for You have made me. " I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well." Yes, Lord, I praise You and bow in reverence before You. When I looked up the words "wonderfully" and "marvelous" in Strong's, they seem to imply a "distinguishing" and a "seperateness". Yes, Lord, I am one of Your many"miracles", and I am set apart as a totallly unique person. I am "one of a kind". When I stop and think about this, Lord, it makes me feel very special! "My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth," Yes, I was "made" in secret, Lord. Nobody but You knew the exact moment of my beginning, not even my mother and father. Indeed, it was all done in SECRET by Your Almighty power! You prepared that special "hiding place" for me in my mother's womb, and You covered and protected me there in Your love. O the "mother love" that wells up within my heart as I think of each of the dear, little ones that You have in the past planted secretly within MY womb. I thank You for them, Lord. "Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them." Wow, Lord! Through the process of time, while I was in my mother's womb, You molded me into a form with special characteristics, unlike any other person in the world. My "members" were "written" - described and prescribed by You! O Lord, I must stop and accept Your sovereignty in my life. You prescribed my physical weaknesses and my temperament. We have all been born with various things we didn't like about ourselves. Surely You are sovereign, O God, and each thing You have "marked" us with was and is for our good and for Your glory! I must stop and consider my weak constitution and disposition towards allergies which I have had all my life. It was Your PLAN for ME. May I accept Your sovereign hand in my life. Lord, I must stop and really meditate on all of this. Surely Your "finger" is upon me today. If You have made me a "unique" individual, surely You have done this same thing with my precious husband and each of my children. Lord, why am I always trying to "clone" them? Please give me grace to allow them to be who they are because You made them the way they are! Amen! |
