Of all of our four children, none of them were an "accident" or a surprise. In the 13 years of our marriage we have let God choose how many and when each of our children should be born. Two of our children have a genetic condition which requires regular doses of medication. When God made our children, He did not accidentally give them the wrong genetics. He had an intentional plan. Even more so, there has never been a single person in the past, present or future who was made accidentally. God never makes mistakes and when life begins is His choice, and His alone.

Summary Sentence: You are not an accident.

It seems to me, God has two very prominent characteristics. First of all, He is the Creator of everything from microscopic bacteria to stars that are so far away we can't even see them twinkle. Second of all, He is love -- the very essence of love. What an awesome combination. God made us and He loves us far more than anyone could ever try to love us. God's motivation for making each of us was love. That's why we're not an accident and God really, really, really wants us to love Him back. Going to God to find out our purpose in life is a way we can do that.
