Your Formative Creator

Commentators explain that God "formed you from the womb" refers to more than physical birth. It signifies His foundational role in creating Israel as a nation and, more deeply, His work of spiritual regeneration in believers. This intimate, creative act is a profound argument for His enduring love and a promise that He will not abandon the work of His own hands.
