Today we recall that Jesus was living in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Mary conceived - a child, the child Jesus.
Some Scriptures to meditate upon today, as we pray for God's mercy.
Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image,in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Deuteronomy 30:19 This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him.For the Lord is your life...
Job 10:8-12 Your hands shaped me and made me... Did you not clothe me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and sinews? You gave me life and showed me kindness, and in your providence watched over my spirit.
Job 31:15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?
Psalm 51:5 Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
Psalm 95:6 Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.
Psalm 100:3 Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Psalm 119:73 Your hands made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands.
Psalm 138:8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever— do not abandon the works of your hands.
Psalm 139:13-16 For you created my inmost being;you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.
Isaiah 44:2 This is what the Lord says — he who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you...
Isaiah 44:24 This is what the Lord says — your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: "I am the Lord, who has made all things,who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself..."
