I am not sure what my Grandmother was trying to say to me when she said it. At the time I think I thought that it wasn't a good thing. But over the years I have learned that everyone of us are special...everyone human being is an individual, and God only made one of each one of us. Therefore, He broke the mold on all of us.
David speaks of this in Psalm 139.
Psalm 139:13-16
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
15 You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
16 You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.
Jeremiah reveals how he was set apart for the Lord even before he was formed in his mother's womb.
Jeremiah 1:4-5 NLT
Jeremiah’s Call and First Visions
The Lord gave me this message: I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.
Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
So I shared with this person this morning that their mold too had been broken and they were one of a kind.
Meditating on it a little further and remember Pastor Mike Sowell's message on how God has clothed those who believe in Jesus with favor, it just occurred to me what my Grandmother had saw on me. Even when I was young, my grandmother saw the favor of the Lord upon me. His grace was like a shield over me because I was to become co-heirs with Jesus. Despite any sin or mistakes, I was destined to become His, complete in Him, and robed with His righteousness...His grace.
How I awe at how God chose me to become one of His own! By His grace I am what I am...accepted and loved by My Beloved Savior, Jesus Christ.
Thank you Father for loving me first, so that I could love you.
1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us
