Embracing Divine Craftsmanship: A Journey of Purpose and Praise

Matt Redman's song "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made" is a profound reflection on the divine craftsmanship involved in human creation. The lyrics draw from the biblical concept found in Psalm 139:14, which speaks of being 'fearfully and wonderfully made.' Redman marvels at the intricacy and elegance of human life, attributing it to the hand of God. This acknowledgment of divine creation leads to a sense of awe and gratitude, challenging the listener to recognize the existence of a higher power through the very breath they take and the strength they possess.

The song delves into the purpose of life, posing a rhetorical question: "What am I going to do with this life You gave me?" This question is not just a moment of introspection but a call to action. Redman suggests that the only fitting response to such a magnificent gift of life is to live in a way that praises and obeys God. The lyrics emphasize a life dedicated to displaying God's glory through every breath and action, highlighting a commitment to live with heart and soul fully devoted to divine purposes.

Moreover, Redman celebrates the elegance and grand design of all creation, which leaves humanity in a state of amazement. This admiration for the wonders of creation serves as a testament to God's power and grace. The song encourages listeners to reflect on their own lives and the days ordained for them, urging them to use their existence to honor and glorify the Creator. Through its contemplative and worshipful tone, "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made" inspires a deeper appreciation for the divine artistry in human life and a commitment to live purposefully in response to it.
