Unique

Thinking about the individual is mind-blowing. It’s interesting to think that while you grow up in the same conditions as your siblings, you are all completely different from each other. How does that happen? Why do we develop our own likes and interests? How can we be unique in a world with over 7 billion people on the earth?

Many of us develop similar interests, but no one has the exact same everything. Even thinking about school, no one has the exact same schedule as me. How does that happen? Why do we develop our own interests––how is it possible to develop into a unique individual?

The even crazier thing is that God knows everyone. He remembers everything that is unique to each of us. He really does know us better than we know ourselves. And it’s amazing that He didn’t make it easier for himself by creating a few traits to apply to everyone. Rather, He created us to all differ and be 100% original. I truly appreciate that fact: that He lets us be our own person. That He doesn’t limit us by who we can be just to make things simpler for himself. And I even more appreciate the fact that He puts in the effort to have a personal, one-on-one relationship with each of us. It’s truly amazing.
