'... I am fearfully and wonderfully made...' (Psalm 139:14)
They're right there, on our fingers. We've had them ever since we grew in the womb, and yet, how often do we think about them?
Fingerprints.
On one level, fingerprints have helped bring many criminals to justice.
But this is only possible because of the One who made fingerprints.
How amazing is it that no two sets of fingerprints are the same? Even identical twins don't have the same fingerprints.
Which means, God has made different fingerprints for about seven billion people...and that's just people alive today.
It gives us a glimpse of the creativity of our Lord - and the fact that He does not view us as a collective humanity, rather as individual people whom He knows and loves deeply.
So, next time you happen to glance at your hands, don't worry that your hands might be dirty or wrinkly or your nails are too long or whatever.
Look at those artistic patterns on your fingers.
And be thankful there's a God who cares about YOU.
