Here is...some crazy...wonderful news....
“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10
Paul’s use of the word “workmanship” – the Greek word “poiema”…yes…where we derive our English word “poem,” tells us that the Master Artisan has created something of exquisite, delightful beauty…and that is...you and me
Yet, without Him, our lives are without measure or meter, without rhyme or reason…however…as we are hidden in His love…ohhh…how much potential we hold.
Honestly, in the past, I loved taking “tests” and classes, dabbling here and there, trying to figure "who I was." I despaired of ever knowing and I always...repeat ALWAYS...wanted to be someone else. Are you trackin' with me here?
However, it wasn’t until I made living in His presence just about my only priority (I say "just about" because I am not perfect in this!) and believing His Word my daily strength (not always perfect in that, either), did I know and start to fulfill my “destiny” in Him.
Yep, that’s the truth. And…yep…you and I are the Master Artisan’s favorite poem. Let’s let Jesus write each word and phrase of our lives.
Can you even begin to imagine the possibilities?
(Blessed by this in any way? Please consider sharing onto your Facebook page! You can reach others with His encouragement, that I never would be able to!)
