“For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” – Ephesians 2:10
Have you been to a famous art gallery? Behind every work of art is a creator with a plan for what the masterpiece should look like. Most works of art take months or even years to create as the artist pays attention to every small detail. At the end of the creation, the artist will carefully add his or her mark or signature to authenticate the work.
God’s signature is all over creation. But, have you considered that God’s glory is also seen through His creation of YOU? You are God’s creation. Ephesians 2:10 uses a Greek word poiēma, which means “God’s masterpiece.” That’s you!
Some things to think about:
- God is the Creator who has specific purposes for His masterpieces. His fingerprints are all over your life.
- God’s glory is displayed through His creation. You’re a part of that creation. And so your life brings glory to God. Let this thought dramatically change the way you see yourself and your day!
