For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
Ephesians 2:10
When I was growing up, I spent a lot of time wondering what I had to offer the world. I was not exactly good at any sort of sport (mediocre at best). I was a mediocre student for the most part. I was never "tall, dark and handsome." Never was good enough to be part of the clique. So I kept wondering why God put me on this earth if I had nothing worthwhile to offer.
As a youngster through high school through college and beyond, the only thing I used regularly was my imagination. I liked to think. I could sit for hours just thinking. Now, thinking is not a real "friend winner", but I learned that thinking leads to perspective (looking at a situation from many sides).
Each of us has a place in God's Masterpiece Plan. As a matter of fact, God has set things for us to do since before time was time. And as we go through life, we will discover that we aren't just PART of God's Masterpiece of Life, God has also made each of us His Masterpiece! God never made junk. God never made worthless. God never makes pointless. Everything God has created has a purpose and is a wonderful masterpiece!
Take a minute and think about that!
